I installed the Aerostar air dam on our 64 Greenbrier and the fit was very 
good.  AFAIK it is still on that Greenbrier, which we sold to Jim Forgey of CT.

Currently,  I have installed an air dam for the 89-92 Ford Ranger (Ford 
part # E9TZ17626A - Valance) on our 65 Greenbrier.  I have to say that the 
Ranger air dam is an even a better fit and extends down about 1/2-3/4" 
lower.  The outboard ends of the air dam are retained by the existing 9/16" 
head body bolts that attach the lower cab corners. The center is held up 
with speed nuts and 3/4" #12 sheet metal screws that run up through the 
bottom edge of the lower panel.

Our Greenbrier also has the front control splash shield.  There are some 
special modifications  (trimming both parts) needed to make the air dam and 
splash shield fit.

Any type of air dam you fit will help reduce buffeting in cross winds.
