C1 Windshield Post's, all the same?

[William B.]

I am looking for a set of windshield post's and stainless frame assy. for a 60 vette. Are they all the same from 58 to 62 or do they have differences that are judged? If so could someone explain the different types I should look for. Thanks!

They are all the same but the top header 60 up had sun visores .I'm %99 pretty sure,
I like to leave %1 open. only the door posts are different from 56 to 62.

Believe visors were an option in 59-60, standard 61-62.

Thanks everyone, to understand: I can get the chrome whindshield posts from any 58 to 62 car, but I have a 60 so I need the stainless from a 60 t0 62. I think I got it right.

If you get a top molding without holes for the visors, they can be drilled in the proper locations. The originals had a backup plate installed thet the screws actually attach to, but you can install a plate with some JB Weld that will probably be functionaly suitable. Don't just install the visors with sheet metal screws into the stainless, they won't stay put very long.

Basically any 56-62 frame that you can find will work or can be modified to work, but if you get one with the visor hole provisions it would be better/easier.

Since you have a 60 any will work because, as noted, visor were an option.
