Boring question: C3 Spare tire carrier interchange

[69427]

Looking to pick up a used spare tire carrier in the near future for some minor modifications to fit my new frame. The C4 suspension I put in has a fitment issue where the rear toe rod bracket and the very front edge of the tire carrier try to occupy the same real estate. I was going to put my present piece on the shelf, and cut up a replacement carrier. What model years look the same as a '69 piece?

thanks,
Mike

Didn't know there are different spare tire carriers - mine is on the attic, I can take a few pics if that helps....

I have a '69 carrier im selling. I dont think you would want to ship that though

try greyhound freight... they're cheap but you have to pick it up at their terminal

Paragon lists them all the same PN from 1968-82. All C3 years should all be the same.

In the vendor catalogs they are the same part

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the information. I looked at several beat up carriers at the NCRS swap meet today in Kissimmee. Too pricey for my taste. I'll just keep looking at some non resto type swap meets and see what I can find. It'll be a few months before I get the car back on the road, so a flat tire situation isn't anything I'm going to lose sleep over in the near term.

thanks again,
Mike
