if you can take a few more pics of the slide without the glare i thought I saw a 1 on your keyway.
i'm far from a newer Wilton bullet expert, but i'm happy to take a guess and maybe bump up your thread to find another member that might own one of these big ones.
i'm guessing it's late 90's or early 2000's, but it might be older with the jaws being bolted in from the back of the vises jaw towers.
It also looks like the swivel base of your C3 is a different color paint. one of the issues with the C3's was they were a bit top heavy and their original swivel bases could break.
how much does it weigh?

Like Drives, I'm not an expert but the tail of the vise does not have the current large diameter dust cap so it is older than around 1998. And the Wilton logo is curved so I would guess much older, possibly mid-70's. Plus the state, "ILL" is spelled out with 3 letters, so possibly much older yet.
