'63 C-B Cottington

[Kurt Arends]

Just stumbled onto this on eBay. It is not mine and I have never seen it before. I see that he is also willing to sell parts off of it. If anyone is interested in anything, let me know. I will call him to see if I can check it out.

You don't see these 63s too often.

Sure is too bad they did in the back door and rear bumper loading it on the trailer even if you wanted to bring it back now just about impossible.

Looks to definitely be a parts donor car. If I was interested in a '63 C-B Cottington to restore, I would have bought the one that sold 2 years ago for about $400 with a siren and was in better shape. Just thought someone might need something off of it. Listing says it is here in Council Bluffs, IA and he is willing to part it out.

Any idea as to how many years that back door glass might interchange with??

One would have to pull it and measure it. 64 would be Wayne built so it could fit a lot of the MM and CBs they liked to keep things simple. My parts book only gives a cb number not a nags number. But I'm sure they used a back glass out of a 50s sedan.

If any chance it is the same as the 65 I would be interested , but I think it dose not have the bend in like the 65.Thanks

I sent a message to the seller on May 6th asking about the glass. So far, I haven't received a reply...

Could you take a measurement from top corner to bottom of opposite side corner of just the rear door glass (diagonal measurement), and let me know what it is. I would consider purchasing it, if it will fit my car. Also, could you check to see if it is tinted or clear. thanks Junkman

I have not received a response yet either Paul............. and I told him that I live in Council Bluffs, where he is supposedly located.

just a quick check on the 72 CB it tapes out 42 the 67 superior 43 normal add is 1/4 around for the rubber. but I would be surprised if they are not the same out of the car. the grommet on the CB has a lot deeper Chanel then the superior. but that being said I would not lay any money down with out have it out and the exact measurement

Dan, I worked out of a '63 C/B Seville for a few years back in the day, and it didn't have the bend in the rear window.
