Is there any way to tighten tension on the wind wings on a 1957 T-Bird? After about 35 mph they blow in to closed position. They work perfectly and don't want to "Fix it till it's broke", I'm probably just being fussy.

There are hex screws on the inside above and below the hinges. You should be able to just snug them down a bit.

Thanks, Ward 57. Worked perfectly, no problem, I just didn't want to try someting that didn't make sence and foul up an otherwise perfectly good wingwing.
