The 1963 Australian Drivers' Championship was a CAMS sanctioned national motor racing title for drivers of Formula Libre cars with the championship winner awarded the 1963 CAMS Gold Star. The title was contested over a six-round series:

Championship points were awarded on a 12-7-5-3-2-1 basis at each round to the top six Australians licence holders. Race placings gained by drivers who were not Australian licence holders were disregarded by CAMS when determining placings for points allocation. Each driver could retain points only from the Australian Grand Prix plus his/her best four performances from the other five rounds.


The championship was won by Bib Stillwell driving a Repco Brabham Climax.
