rear window defogger - odd in a convertible ?
My 1969 convertible has a rear window defogger - a blower that mounts in the rear compartment and vents onto the rear window thru a blow-molded elbow and some flexible cloth tubing. It is controlled by a two-position rotary switch, located on the lower left side of the console (on that little filler panel).
Is this an unusual feature on a convertible ? I doubt its L88 rare (lol), but no one local has ever seen one before.
In advance - thanks for your replies !

I'll bet that they were only on fairly high-optioned cars, and probably just the northern states for original dealer delivery?
My car is 435 automatic, PS, PB, PW, rear window defrost.

My '75 has one as well and I have never seen another convertible with one.
