I am trying to trace an ad from a "trader" in the Montgomery/Radnorshire border area that was offering rear wind deflector screens for corvette convertibles.
Any help appreciated, perhaps i should go up to Tatton park this week-end.

Are they the kind that look like a giant fly-swat?

I thought the wind buffetting wasn't too bad at all on mine, certainly compared with other soft tops I've had.

Be interested to see what you can get (and where it would fit?)

Not sure about that vendor but the product I think you want is called the Vette Net:

Hi, Did you find anyone who has it?

I was even considering simply making one out of 25mm box alluminium.
I would make a wooden template, out of 25mm square wood, and have a fab. shop cut and weld it, and weld on a few small mounting lugs for the screen to attach to,
Instead of using black net like the vetnet, I will use 4mm clear makralon.
This is a clear, and very strong perspex sort of material, used in the food industry.

I am sure it would not be too difficult to make.
I would opt to have it polished, and not painted as the original ones.
