I have an early -63 myself and it has the original 30hp engine, non-synchro gearbox, hydraulicbrakes, black 3-spoke steeringwheel. Wingnuts for the seats, painted bumpers and front turnsignals. Seatcovers without piping. The only things that are not typical Standard on mine is the fronthood trim and rockguards on rearfenders. Those were mounted on the car when it was delivered to the first owner. (I bought it from the same guy 40 years later...)
