1963 Dodge 880 and Custom 880


880 AND CUSTOM 880 SERIES - (V-8) -The 880 was the top trim level in conventional Dodges for 1963. While continuing to utilize the Chrysler body from the windshield back. a completely new front end was styled for 1963. This gave the car an identity all its own. The full-width grille was made up of very fine convex vertical bars. The Dodge name, in block letters, was located in the center of the hood. It also appeared in script, on the front fenders behind the headlights. Rear end styling featured new circular taillights and chrome housings. The Custom 880 was identical to the 880, with the addition of a few minor trim pieces. The 265 horsepower 361 cubic inch V-8 engine was standard in all 880s and Custom 880s.
