    Are you referring to the orange thing mid span on the hood centerline?

    Yes there is a aftermarket wind splitter thing there. Seems to have been a popular item in the day. And still sold. It is supposed to part the slipstream so to speak to keep the bugs off the windshield I guess? Others may know more.

    That Buick with the bi-flector is mine. I've always thought they were cool. I believe it or not it works.

    Any more pics of the Autocar? I don't think I have ever seen one of those. Very cool and probably rare?

    That wind splitter was actually to divert airflow off the windshield and help the wipers stay in contact at speed.:)

    Any details on the little Vespa car? I used to have one when I lived in Loveland in the late '60s. I cut out the floor to instal a 215 Olds. Only got as far as distroying the floor.
