63 having the knock off wheels would be exceptionally rare.
Kelsey Hayes who cast the wheels for them had porosity problems. to the extent that the tires would go flat on the show room floor. Some dealers retrofitted them with tubes but ultimately most of them would have been a steel wheel.
As for the off road exhaust, it was a factory option that decreased the number of baffles in the muffler tanks for more performance. Something of a "track exhaust"

I've never been that enamored of the split windows. I prefer the years before or after over the '63.

65 Fuel injected car for me. or a 66 427 would be my choice.

Having driven one a lot, Id be inclined to disagree. In fact I do know someone that uses a 63 fuel injected coupe as a daily driver in southern California.
