'63 or '64

So...I am sooooo close to finalizing the deal for a nice 1964 GT when out of the blue a 1963 GT pops up in comparable shape. Is one model year preferable to another? i can't imagine there is too much difference but I guess thats why I am asking. Thanks in advance for the help

IMHO a 1963 is a bit more desirable because of the 7 panel endcaps

The things a 63 has, besides the end caps are a dual power system with no converter. It also has a pressurized water tank, rather than a water pump. There are a few odds and ends, as well, such as a 120 volt stove vent on some models.

D model

Well I spoke to the owner and she said that it is a deluxe model. Among-st other small things the spare tire was mounted on the back bumper. Gonna go look at it this weekend. I think I am kind of leaning towards which ever one is in better shape and oh yea the price
