Default 32 sun visors

A few years ago I found a vender on the old deuces limited site that had new visors. Does anybody remember seeing these and what business offered them?

Drake shows the cardboard type, but with the cardboard replaced with aluminum and of course no embossing.
He has the 3W type available as hinges and bare frame for upholstery.

Do you need early (mounts in center) or late (mounts on end)? Do you have a 3 window coupe (different again)? Le Baron Bonny may have the late ones, lebaronbonney.com, 800 221-5408. There was a guy selling reproductions of the early ones in the V8 Times (I could probably find it if you need it). I haven't seen the reproduction of the early ones but understand they are fiberglass and look very good. With the cost of the reproductions, I was considering glueing a couple off pieces of masonite together (to make a material that was the right thickness) and making my own.
