I noticed that wind wings were available in '32, could someone tell me about them? Size?, color/s?, what material were they made from? how attached?
Most important where are some pictures of them? Are they re-made today or only NOS?

Gator wind wings are the same as wing vents i the early fifties, but different. They mount on the outside of the front doors. they consist of hinges brackets and glass panes, the brackers are being reproduced and they are a bit pricey. I have a pic of one ,a '28: let's see what I can do:

 JunkYardDog, In your first post you said "except cabriolet", my car is a cabriolet so what did the cabriolet have or use? The Filling Station is in process of putting out a new catalog so I'm still waiting for one. Hopefully it will come soon.

Ok,  JunkYardDog as to your question which part of the tire is holding the air, Well, it is the tube that is holding the air, and as to why it is called an inner-tube is because it holds the air IN the tire! so the part of the tire that holds the air in is the inside of the tire, and Oliver Hardy, that is that..

Hey guys, tell me about cabriolet wing wings, is there a problem with wings when you lay the windshield down? Were there made of glass? what about colors? Would etching the glass cost you points or not? I have noticed a lot of F*#ds have glass etching on them. "them sissy wind wings"? Never knew that.
