Re: wiper blades

Roy,

I found that same price placard (a bit more yellowed) in a box of vintage Trico wipers obtained at an estate auction this summer. The print date on mine is late 1958. Do you know when the plastic tabs on the end were discontinued?

Re: wiper blades John

All C1's had them I know, I remember many C2's had them that I saw back then, that was Corvette and CAR GM only cars. My 67 dint .but I only have had it 25 years .
So I really don't know but I have NOS C1 and C2 wipers with them. I also have NOS winter wipers that are rubber coated for both years. What does NCRS say???

Were they Anco's on the 67, Roy

I've had a pair of Anco holders on my 67 for 37 years. The one's with the air foils. I recently found out that they were not original, so I guess I must have replaced them and forgot.

Re: wiper blades black end caps

Roy - We have been able to confirm from some old pictures that '65 Corvettes with TRICO windshield wiper (w/s/w) blade assemblies had the Latch-Lock clip on the refills. I have some NOS Cadillac TRICO 15" w/s/w blade assemblies w/o CAN 63 on the clips that had the black end caps. Not many data points, just info.

I hope NCRS would say it's OK to have winter blades on your car when you drive it in the winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pete
