Update: Thank you to Ken(66 Grande guy) the radio delete plate is on its way my direction for a donation to Canadian Poncho. Awesome idea and thanks Ken covered shipping...amazing.
Another big thx to Don(DonSSDD) for answering ad as well.
If there was a radio delete plate that would fit the '63 dash, does anyone have one? Also wondering if back up light delete cover plates were available for same.
Thanks in advance.
Steve

Keith I think you are correct about the 62/63 being different since the placement & trim around each is different. Thanks anyway. Don you've got me thinkin bout the '64. Quick Google search trying to look at a '64 dash has it looking close to the '63. Anyone know if radio placement/trim on 63/64 is same? With regards to delete block plate anyway.

Finding info online about radio delete block off plates especially for Canadian cars is impossible. Did find a pic of the dash in the Packer Pontiac campaigned car which is a Catalina. Attaching it. Dash looks similar to second pic which is our dash which reminds me that I should be looking for a clock delete filler too.

Link to an earlier post, Carls parts book says 1963 and 1964 are the same, this part came off a 64- I forgot I asked this question.

Pics of the part sitting on my dash, in front of the radio and in a spare 63 dash I have. The spare dash is dusty which is why the colour is a paler gray?
i actually have two of those I found in a box of parts i got from on old dealership. If you need one or both let me know. they were NOS but may have a bit of bin wear.

A buddy of mine could actually use one. Let me know if one could be sent my way.

Hopefully these are what you guys are looking for. If you want one my proposal is one to each guy for a decent (whatever you think that is.) donation to this site.
PM me your addresses and I will ship them for free to you.

The clock plate is different in a 64, different shape, fyi for anyone who reads this thread in the future.
