Wind deflectors for our hoods - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I have a new old old stock b-84 wind deflector that was in my grampas garage as long as I can remember. It even still has the peel away plastic on it. But there are no clips!!!. Anyone have any idea of how to mount this thing to our hoods? It even has the correct bend In The center.

I defiantly remember these.

I can make you some brackets.

They were made of Aluminum. BIR

I hope a Member can give me Dimensions of the brackets?

This is a Rare item For Sure.

Hope someone can chime in on this that has one.

If not you we can work this out.

I am thinking Qty 4 to 6 brackets bent to clear the hood shutting with 1/2 inch clearance.

Does the deflector have predrilled holes?

That's what I'm thinking too. No prefilled holes but I'm thinking it's held on the deflector part with spring clips. I'll post a pic

These holes in the picture look like they are for flat head screws.

How many of those are they?
