I’m looking for a pair of wiper blades for my ‘69 Chevelle 300 Deluxe. They are the non hidden wipers just like a Nova and Camaro. They are 16” long.

Essentially, I’m looking for a stock looking replacement, no plastic blades.

Or, if anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be great too!

Thanks, Kurt :biggthumpup:

Kurt, I think a bigger problem for you may be those slicks in the rain!!!!

This guy has stock type blades that can be trimmed to fit. I used the rubber only blade and they slip in easily enough if you take your time https://m.ebay.com/itm/63-64-65-66-67-Corvette-Anco-NOS-vintage-wiper-refills-2782444-rubbers-only/152968250688?hash=item239d9e4540:g:f0AAAOSwN9tZci5 p

Hi, are you sure they're 16" ?

I just checked my 69 Camaro and they're 15" but it's a convertible, I think those blades are shorter than coupes.

Anyway, I have some stock type replacements; they've got the rubber rails too, like the auction quoted above FYI. But they're 15"

Let me know if you confirm length.

Thanks,
Anthony

I measured one yesterday but the car is in my trailer with a cover on it and I was in a hurry. I’ll do it again tonight.

Thanks, Kurt

Kurt - will these work?

I tried looking them up on NAPA's site but did not find anything for inserts, just modern replacement blade assemblies.

They are definitely 16” long.

I ordered a pair on eBay......we’ll see what happens.

Thanks, Kurt

If the ones I bought don’t work, I’ll look in to these.....

Thanks Jake, Kurt
