All of the 67-72 trucks and parts trucks I have owned all had s.s. wiper arms..even the low optioned ones.

Re: were chrome wiper arms an option

chrome 'blade holders' was the option. I think it came with special packages (Cheyenne, CST, etc.)

Re: were chrome wiper arms an option

I agree with the SS being the correct wiper arms and blade holders. I have found chrome arms and holders on GM cars (pre 68 I believe). Before the DOT regulations changed in that time period. Chrome mirrors, chrome wipers, etc. that could cause glare for the driver. I have also found some nice arms/holders on Ford Galaxies.

Not 100% correct for our trucks but a good looking upgrade - just like the rally wheels for 2wd trucks. Not correct but a lot of people use them.

They are out there if you look.

Nope, no chrome wiper blades either.
They were also stainless, and regardless of option package.
