OR possibly for an AC component?

What label are you using?

The Kleer View black early one.
I had a 61 Ventura coupe in 64-66, and a 62 Ventura Trim Cat in 63. Both had AC, dual speed wipers, washers and bottles.

Why don't you just use a Molson or LaBatt bottle? Show some Canadian pride...

I found a bottle bracket here and I'd say those dimples are too far apart...

How did YOU get in here?....you're not OLD enough.....

Don't talk to ME about PRIDE....they had a parade here last week....and were LUCKY I didn't GO....

Molson labatt is eastern beer.......nobody here drinks that stuff...

Did you find some empties in your trunk?

When I was a drunk....this was my brand....

Had to look at mine again, and see the spacing isn't as far apart as I thought.
Sorry for the misguidance.

I was lucky enough to secure an NOS Bottle for my '66 recently.
I couldn't believe the fluid survived/lasted all these years with minimal evaporation.
Note the original "waxlike" coating on the thick paper label.

I've read that some restorers after installing, clear-coat the repro labels to give a similar appearance.

NICE....will you leave that one to me in your will?....

I actually had some OptiKleen labels printed up on vinyl....so they wouldn't get the "shriveled look"....about 10 years ago......but they stay TOO perfect....and MY cars are not that nice....

AS I recall......these bottles are date coded on the bottom....and say Made in Canada....or is it just the ones I have?

Yes the Canadian Bottles & Labels differed from the US versions.
Checkout the label on the 65-66 Canadian bottle on have on file.

Also saved this info found on a Chebby site don't think the numbers are of use but found it interesting;

In 1961, a factory-installed bottle, 5772464, was included as part of either the single-speed wiper with washer option, RPO 437, or the two-speed wiper with washer option, RPO 413. RPO 437 was discontinued in 1962. RPO C14 replaced RPO 413 beginning in 1963. This label was black and white.
A dealer-installed bottle was also offered, 5772465.
The dealer-installed bracket was sold separately as 3815273, although the number wasn't listed in Canadian parts books until 1963. This part was available in Canada only through United Motors Service (UMS), GM's marketing arm that sold GM component-maker parts (Delco, Harrison, AC, Packard, Hyatt, etc.)
