and in the seller's description he say's- "A third extra tail light from 63
original option kit'. Was that really an option or an aftermarket idea?

popular customizing technique at the time (likely AFTER 1963 model year
was over),
never offered by Chevrolet as an option.

Not a GM option, just a custom job that was common as were the rims,
disk brakes, valve covers, to just mention a few of the non stock '63
parts.

when i bought my '64, i was told later that it was
part of the "california option" whatever that means
but i haven't followed it up since...

is that something that dealer's would have offered
prior to selling??
