Amco Wind Deflectors

#1 Post by Miles Richardson »

I have this pair of Amco wind deflectors, but cannot tell if they are original to 356's or other cars. They are plexi-glass with chrome hardware. Anybody have any info or ideas?

See some period wind deflectors sold as aftermarket accessories for Porsches and other sports cars of the time. Scroll down.

That pair will not fit a 356. The attaching pieces are not correct. They probably fit a MG or some other Brit car. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Thanks for the info Jim! I guess they are going to ebay and hopefully a buyer there will know.
