Default F/S: Metal Rear Window Louvers for '78-82

SOLD, SOLD, SOLD: One complete set of vintage metal / ABS rear window louvers for 1978-82 C3 coupes. These aren't those cheesy plastic ones, but are of aluminum construction with ABS privacy panels. Center louvered section hinges open for easy cleaning of rear window (yep, I've still got the original "key"). Used, but still in excellent condition as when removed from C3 pictured below, the only thing they need is a couple of strips of fresh mounting tape and a new home. Asking only $150 OBO plus S&H (prefer local pickup, as special packaging will be required).



Thanks for looking! Please email or post initial inquiries here. (My PM box is often full.)

Yes Sir: It's a good thing you don't live in Kansas City, I would of already bought these louvers, if nothing else, to hang on the wall for people to talk about, these are old school add on, for sure. Where would a person buy the new mounting tape? Good luck on the sale. Have a great one. Gene

Yes, they are definitely old school Gene. Odds are I'll eventually have to figure out how to package them anyway, and I might go ahead and do so just to tempt you. Also, have a black Sport Deck which inserts beneath the rear window and above the privacy shade, if you've ever heard of or seen one of those. May post them soon.

Yes, 3M makes a range of tapes that will work well.

I have to sell some stuff, but like Gene, I might be knocking when you say you'll ship. I have been toying with the thought of those for a while.

Yes, they are the actual ones pictured, and are in excellent condition with only a couple of very minor scratches. The only thing you'll need is a little fresh mounting tape. Need to solve packaging and get a shipping quote (assuming Titusville, FL 32780), but will try to get back to you this weekend.

I should be able to make Corinth work for $25, plus the $150, but might have to put in a few hours Saturday, and this Sunday is Easter. But, I'm sure we can work something out soon enough. Texting you.

SOLD, SOLD, SOLD

Bobby, it was good to meet you and see your nice ride. Packaging so they weren't damaged would have likely been a chore. IMHO those are going to look great on your '82 (nice ride).

Oh, and be sure to PM or text me with your address so I can mail you that key. Doh!
