It could be a 1500 engine. The oil filler cap is where the vent is on the 
1500 valve cover. I have never seen a 1500 engine configured with a vent 
hose that way.

The car is not a 63. It may have been stamped that way, but it looks like a 
64. The rear badge is wrong. It looks like someone drilled holes and mounted 
65-67 hood letters there.

I agree with the other posts. For that kind of money the car should be an 
original restoration. Correct wheel covers, engine, badges and everything 
should be perfect.
