[SCG] '63 washer bottle on eBay: Canadian?

[noahsarkinc]

The green tint is a result of the fluid being in the bottle for a long time. 
If you wash the inside of the bottle with some sudsy amonia, then it will 
remove this discoloration and the bottle will again be clear glass.  All the 
triangular bottles were manufactured in Canada, and the only difference in 
the bottles is that some are date coded on the bottom cast into the glass. 
Reproduction labels are available from the Corvair vendors and Jim Osborn 
Reproductions in Georgia.  I have some original NOS silk screened caps that 
I got from a vendor that purchased the balance of bottles from the Canadian 
manufacturer back in the mid 1980's.  Please contact me directly if you are 
interested in purchasing any of these caps.  thanks Paul in CT
