Have a set of trico blades with the anco acc. This was on my 68 cst when we stripped it. Are they worth anything?

Evrything has a value, if same as a 1972 I would be interested if nice condition.

77chris03 · 01-16-2022, 11:05 AM

theyre almost perfect. just curious if theyre worth keeping over the ''newer'' style stuff.

Post them on the parts for sale forum. They will sell. Personally I would keep them and use them.... Just lube them up first.

Man, That's a lot of "them's"...

MDFarms · 01-16-2022, 01:26 PM

Of you sell them please let me know.

What are those big taco shell things?

54blackhornet · 01-16-2022, 05:40 PM

Those are aerodynamic aids, intended to keep the blades firmly seated upon speeds in excess of 200 mph.

HOTFUN · 01-24-2022, 11:45 AM

They are the front spoiler effect at 200mph on my 1960 Impala between these Trico Aero blades and the rear fins you just run out of hp before wind lift off pavement! lol As said they were designed to keep the blades pushed on the windshield at highway speeds.
Very popular wiper option in the 1960's-70s. My blades today on the 60 are actually polished stainless with the red dots and I had looked high and low for that set because me and my Dad had put them on our families 1960 Impala in the mid 1960's.
