NIR photometry, spectrophotometry, and CO/HCN data for three carbon stars from the IR complete carbon star sample of Groenewegen et al. (1991) are presented. The three stars include 08074-3615 (group IV), 11318-7256 (group III), and 13477-6532 (group IV). Distances and mass-loss rates are derived assuming a mean luminosity of 7050 luminosity masses. Dust-to-gas ratios of about 0.0007 are derived using a radiative transfer model. It is suggested that the presence of a 3.1 micron feature is a more suitable carbon star identification mark than the HCN/CO ratio.
