At first I thought they were Wind Wings but they seem to have tinting between the layers of glass. So maybe sun visors. Heavy nickel plated. Approximately 6 by 16 inches.

Re: Need help identifying
Seems more like a pair of cowl mount windshield for racing car, or perhaps a pair rear seat tonneau windscreens, for like a '20's Buick or other larger car.

Re: Need help identifying
Thanks guys
I couldn't find anything close on the web
Windshields look close without tint.

Sun visors, they were common in larger luxury cars and busses, these glass sun visors were used well into the seventies in busses and coaches..

Re: Need help identifying
Packards had sun visors similar to those.
