I have this item and was curious if any members are familiar with it. It is in a GM Accessories box stating it fits Aerosedans and some Olds/Pontiacs. The shade is metal, like louvers that fit over the back window. Any interest in this? It's in excellent shape. Thanks! Steve

The part number listed for this item is #986196. Rear Window Sunshade Unit - Group 15.350. I found the part number in my 1929-1949 Chevrolet Master Parts Catalog as being removed on 2-1-49. The #986196 does not show up in the 1947 or 1948 Chevrolet Parts Catalogs that I have. Is this part really an original Chevrolet item or was it a cross-over item from the same body style made by Pontiac and Oldsmobile sold in late 1948/1949 in order to get rid of excessive stock?

What becomes of the day for those who rage against it?

Early in the auction it was up to around $300 and when I looked a day or two later it said auction ended and said it sold for $100. :confused: :confused:

There were five different bidders and the price was up to $300. The seller ended the auction and cancelled all bids, therefore the auction was reset back to the original opening bid of $100 and then closed. Weird! :confused: :eek: :(  :confused:

Sellers sometimes get offers like, "I'll pay $1000 and pick it up from your house if you close the auction and sell it to me now."
They close the auction, then pay eBay fees based on starting bid (like $100).

The last one I had went for about $40.00 in a G&D ad-years back.  ..and it had all the attaching parts.

I offered him a set of original 36 chevy fender skirts complete except for one side was missing the upper three sweep shaped mouldings for them and he sad no, I thought thats what this hobby was all about trading someone something he was iterested in for something you were. Go figure.

Some people don't fail to amaze me the owner of the shade emailed me and asked if I could beat his current offer of 2500.00 for the shade it would be mine as inviting as the offer was I must admit I had to pass, so if anyone else finds a rear window shade for 42-48 Chevrolet Aerosedan please email me . I can't go over 2500.00 but I can come close
