I do not know the answer to your query, but thought I would share my 2 cents worth.
I did not use the standard bulbs in mine, I used one from Restoration Supply, their part # is ELE121 and it is a 1680 bulb. It is a direct swap and is very bright. For the stop light I used their ELE064 Halogen bulb and it again is a direct swap and is brighter obviously than the tail lamp. I prefer to be seen well as it is mostly daytime driving and the halogen bulb is quite visible even on sunny days. I also run turn signals through the rear brake lamps and again these work great.

By all accounts, they are the same. I believe the original "B" was for bayonet base, but I cant substantiate that.
All plain designation 63 bulbs seem to fit identically with the correct incandescent amperage at 6V, so you should have no problem. If you are going for a concourse restoration, then you will go down the incandescent avenue, however I have a faithful "driver" so am choosing to use (and seriously recommend that you consider) LED 6V plug/play replacements...check this link out and consider that (you can pick the temperature/luminescence color so you can get the right "look"): ledlight.com/63-led-bulb-7-volt-ba15s-base.aspx If you go LED on many bulbs, contact me and I can give you the links to headlamp, interior, tail lamp, etc as I went through all that research/crossover stuff and could save you some headache. I hope this helps. Dan M. (37 Senior Sedan)
