I'm looking for some original looking repro wiper blades for my 57. Fusick makes many, but not for that year. USA Parts Supply has these:

S10-146G 54-58 All Reproduction $49.95

I called them and they don't know the finish or if they come with the clip to attach to the wiper arm.

I had some blades on, but one fell off and "blew up" when it hit the ground. The current ones don't really clip on securely. They simply hang on the hooks and only stay in place due to the pressure of the arm. It appears they are some sort of replacement the previous owner found.

I've attached pictures of what I currently have and was wondering if any of you 57 owners could comment on whether they might be original. Also, if any of you have purchased the above mentioned blades from USA, are they worth the $50? Do they fit the wiper arm properly, etc?

Thanks.

 

I just saw another forum thread here and it appears what I currently have is a set of Trico Classics. Maybe the clip on the arm is original and they just fit on the newer Tricos. If so, it's still a pain to have them flip off when you lift them off the windshield.

 

FYI follow up:

Found something on Ebay that worked perfectly. Came with a part number and it appears you can get these from http://www.56chevy.com/ The ones I got didn't come from there, but the price was similar.
