You're bidding on a matched set of used 16-inch Trico wiper blades with NOS Trico refills for '68-82 Corvette.  These are the ones with flat black paint and bridge surface embossed 'TRICO Made In USA'.

The fresh NOS refill rubber is characteristic of later era blades as the side wall is flat without raised lines.  The last picture is a comparison shot of the upper bridge detail contrasting today's service replacement blade from Trico (upper) to factory originals from the era.  Note how the replacement blades are wider in the center and narrow toward the outer ends.  On early Shark cars, this geometry difference can interfere with the washer tubes integral to the wiper arm making the blades not sit flush with the glass, especially on the passenger side! 

Shipping calculator presumes USPS priority mail service.  Buyer to pay $2 handling fee plus freight at cost (you can define an alternate method of shipment).  Sale to complete within 10-days of auction close.
