Headlight Bucket Assemblies, Original Fiberglass

Removed from a late July build date 63 Corvette.
If you have a 63 built prior to July 31, 1963, then your buckets were fiberglass and not pot-metal.
These are correct for Corvette’s built prior to this date.
We know as these were taken off a 1963 with a July 31, 1963 build date.
Probably, one of the last cars built in 1963 with fiberglass buckets.
These look “different” because a previous owner decided to BONDO over the headlight buckets and move the headlights to the grille area.
n order to get the buckets out intact, they were cut out of the front clip
Everything is there; all the fiberglass parts of the buckets.
NO tabs are broke or bent.
Includes some of the headlight mount brackets, and the header mount braces too.
It was all cut it out so as to not damage the fiberglass buckets.
The right side bucket will need to have the outer fiberglass panel re-glued to the bucket.
It’s not broke; it just came loose from the bucket when I removed it.
About 1/16″ or so of Bondo will need to be sanded off
- it was that bad of a repair.
These are real, and very nice (although the pictures don’t show that)
