Bought 1963 convertable on bring a trailer. The car is beautiful, A friend retired AH restorer immediately came to inspect it. He was very impressed with the quality of the restoration. Only a small problem is hard starting, working on that.
 
They need choke to start and many chokes don't engage enough. Have someone pull the choke lever and watch to see if the levers move. And the other thing to check is the timing.
