Are you sure it's not an early 64 S?

The reason I asked was that it has the "S" trim on both the inside (where it still is) and on the outside. I believe 63's didn't get that. You could also look at the engine, and see if it's dual carbed. Most 62's and 63's had the side marker light above the belt trim line. Also, they used "pin wheel" style drums. your car has the 64-65 style rear drums.

Going off that id number, it was built in late August of 63. The start of the new model year was August 1st. So it's an early 64.

I would never part this out. It's still restorable to someone that wants a notch bad enough. ....
