It has the coil spring front suspension in place of the 60-62 torsion bars which makes them easy to lower and still retain decent ride quality and it's the last year for the wrap around windshield and double hump dash. I know the 64-66 A pillars are more user friendly but the wrap around windshield on the 60-63s just has so much more style and these trucks were built when the manufacturers still gave a hoot about style!!!

For lots more photos click on the links in my signature, the first one links to my photo gallery on this site and it starts with the first day I had my truck and you can follow along as it transforms from a long stepside bed truck to a short stepside then to the short fleetside that you see here today. Thanks for looking everybody! You all have some sweet 60-63 trucks!
Very nice. What color code is this truck?

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Does anybody (windshield guys?) know if the 60-63 windshield is the same wrap configuration as the 55-59 shape? They look very close.

They won't swap. The earlier windshield is narrower.
