This came with my lasted T3 purchase.

:shock:

i've got one of those i've had for a few years but mine is missing a couple of the screws and mounting tabs so it's not been functional :(

I had a '68 Square with factory AC like that.
I could never get it to work right.
I sold it to Paul at T3D and as far as I know he never messed with it either.

Nice rings! I come across 62-63 red-needles in that condition quite often in SoCal. There was a guy at the Colton Bug-in that had 3 all around that condition selling for $10 each. The one thing I did see was an in-the-box NOS master cylinder for $75 that I probably should've grabbed, grr...

How about some NOS clear seat covers like Grandma use to have?

I don't know how 'rare' this is, but I haven't seen another.
An ANCO 13" wiper blade bracket with a spoiler.
Predates the plastic 80s neon double blades
I'd like to find another to match.

I'd like to find wiper blades to fit them, as I have a pair....

Standard 13" replacements from your favorite online parts supplier work.
You'll probably have to buy the whole assembly and only use the blade.

That is a bug tool kit. The wheel bearing wrench is 27mm. In a T-3 kit it would have been 24mm.
But still a nice find.

27mm is what they came with.

I miss mine!

No, it is an early Type 3 kit, designed to fit inside a Type 3 wheel. The 27mm wrench fits the generator collar on early Type 3s:
