29 tudor visor
 

I am using the Ford Barn helpful information article to install a Mac's roof kit on a 29 tudor. There is plenty of the vinyl top material left over to cover the visor. Does anyone know where I can obtain the little channel that trims the front edge of the visor? Neither the Mac's, Snyder's or Gaslight catalogs lists it. Thanks

Do you mean the edge binding that is stitched to the covering?

Hello Tom In Marco's Model 'A' Ford Barnyard article on reroofing an "A" tudor last picture shows a finished visor and it appears that the forward edge has a small channel shaped piece probably glued on. I am trying to find a source for that channel. Is the visor covered with the roof material on both sides? Thanks

On my Special Coupe, the visor has long grain cobra on the top as well as the bottom. The 'channel' as you call it, is binding. It is sewn on and holds both the bottom and the top pieces together. I would assume that the sedan is the same.

Just put on the cover on my 29 coupe which I got from LaBaron Boney years ago. It was like a sleeve and the edge of the front is the binding. The metal visor just slipped into the sleeve and I glued it and trimmed the edges like the instructed. It came out very nice. I think the tudor visor is the same?

I was told by a couple suppliers that the Tudor did not have a covering - just paint.

The 28-9 Tudors had top material covering the metal visor.

I'm much less familure with the 30-1 Tudor cars but I think they had NO covering on the metal visor.

Mitch would know as he just did a very nice restoration on his 1930 Tudor.
Mitch as posted pictures here, so if you can find one then you'll know.

Factory pictures of '28 and early '29 Tudors I have seen, all had top material covering the visor.
