A super-dooper beverage holder that holds onto your vehicle window frame. I used cheaper basic window cup holders in my Firebird and other cars for years until GM started to build them in.

Which reminds me of a story. I had a cheaper type many years ago for a car without a cup holder. Used it for my morning coffee on the way to work every day. Then one morning a rear wheel came off a school bus that was stopping on a cross street. The wheel hit me broadside in the driver's side door. I was drenched in coffee as was the front interior of the car. The body repair was about $1,200 which would probably be a few thousand today.

The scary thought was; if that wheel had come off on a stop to pick up kids rather than a stop sign, it would have rolled right into them.

lol ... Never thought of that. Not sure I can "size down" to fit.

It came out of a 68 Firebird. It's supposedly a 70's after market beverage cup holder.

Please send pics of one installed Does it go in the console?
