Accessories

I'm interested in seeing accessories that were offered by Ford to compare them against those offer by Chevrolet in 1963.

Interesting, can't remember anyone ever asking that question before. All makes were pretty competitive, they didn't want to lose sales to anybody, so pretty much every manufacturer offered the same accesories. 2 items Ford offered that Chevy never offered was the padded dash option and inside door storage zipper pouch. This is a '64 chart, however, the '63 chart would be very similiar.

The top of dash clock was identical except for the base.
The reason I've posted is because of the bed side rails offered in 63. I swear I saw the same or similar mounted on a Ford truck in Virginia.
I have the 65-66 Ford grille guard you display above. If anyone's interested let me know.

The roof mounted AC is hilarious! I can't imagine very many people opted for that.
