    My dash lights are very very dim on my '63. What light there is, is brighter towards the left. Ideas?

    YES, I know a guy who put this on his website. Although his website says it's for 73-87 trucks, you can easily do the same for your 63. Here's the link

    Hope that helps!

    Perhaps a silly question on my part, but did you try installing new bulbs? As the bulbs age, they tend to get dimmer before they burn out altogether. They also collect a nice coating of dust and gunk that contribute to making them even dimmer. The modern replacement bulb for your '63 dash(same as my '61) is #1895 available at any auto part store.
