These simple wind wings are made from clear Plexiglas (or more scratch resistant Lexan if you're lucky). They are attached to the windscreen side posts with chrome plated hinges and set screws. The hinge pins are screws with acorn nuts which can be adjusted for swivel tension (friction). When folded inward they will fit inside of the standard side curtains. With side curtains removed the wings can be angled outward to deflect wind around the end of the windscreen.

They can do some good if you're driving against a head wind at an angle where the wind will come around the end of the windscreen to blow hard in your ear. With a strong wind in exactly the right direction, they don't do much good. For my personal experience, I decided the benefit was slightly outweighed by the bother, so I removed them.

Matching sun visors, about the same size, are commonly tinted medium grey. All that I have seen are not tinted dark enough to do any good at all as visors in direct sunlight, so those have also been relegated to the "interesting bits bin". They may in fact do more good as wind deflectors if you are a tall driver. Otherwise you may be better off wearing good sun glasses and/or a ball cap with a visor.

Photo at left is a neat idea provided by Freddy Jones in Raleigh, NC, USA. He installed thumb screws in place of the common set screws to make his wind wings easily removeable.

The sun just happen to catch them and project them on the car".

This page could go on forever. Once we begin posting non-original style aftermarket parts, there will be no limit to various styles from anywhere that dealers or owners might screw into the cars.

"Got these sun visors from Terry Armitage. He told me that these were on a 1959 coupe that he restored some time ago. They are obviously after market items but are in remarkably good condition after a good cleaning".
