Wiper blades

[Lucky S.]

Does any one have Anco replacement blades. I have a 1963 and have owned it since 1968. It has always had the aluminum Anco wiper blades. They have an aluminum scoop or spoon like blade that was to keep the rubber blades on the windshield at higher speeds. I think dealers in the old days put them on. I have over the years seen them on a few mid years. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Lucky

Michael,

The blades with a wing were called "Anti Wind Lift" and I think only Anco sold them as aftermarket items. Most gas stations had these in their big yellow Anco cabinet.

Chev dealers may have sold them also but not as original replacement items.

I believe I have those on my 67. I've been wondering about the significance of them.

Enclosed is a photo below of the aftermarket ANCO "Anti Wind Lift" wiper blades in the photo below. The 2 "shiny" blades must 1963-1965 vintage and the 2 "dull" blades must be 1966-1967 vintage. All 4 have "ANCO R PAT. - 2782445" rubber refills.
