The deck lid is pre-1964. Although all deck lids 1956(?) and on were basically the same lid with ribbing running lengthwise, '62 & '63 wore a stainless(?) checkered cover and 1964 had them leaded(?) and smoothed then painted. This 1964 treatment is what I believed to have read somewhere. Apparently it saved money over a new trunk die.

The Trunk Lid looks too be Stock,with the recessed area - not smooth like 64s.

Yikes. Well, the door skins are still OK...and actually I like the wine-red hue...but otherwise...yikes! If it survived, though, it is a prime example of a wild "kustom" of the sort that used to appear on the front of hotrod or mechanic magazines, and it somehow became mine I'd try to preserve it that way. It certainly involved a lot of hard work, whatever anyone's view of the result might be...
