Re: victoria visors
they use hollow rivets similar to hood handle rivets but a different size. I just mounted some up last week. Art if you need some rivets let me know, I have the correct size.

Re: victoria visors
I tried some from Lebaron Bonney that are too short. They are 1/8 diameter 5/16 long nickle plated tubular rivets. I could not get them to go thru the visor and bracket and leave anything to roll over. What did you use? Thank you for your offer, i sent a PM Art

Look up larger rivets they are available from many sources.

Re: victoria visors
if it is 304 stainless when polished out the color is pretty much dead on.

Re: victoria visors
Do any of you gentlemen know if the Victoria visors & brackets are the same as used in a 1931 S/W Fordor Sedan?
How can we find out when the reproduction brackets will become available? Thank you. |

Re: victoria visors
They are the same. See attached photos of visors in a 1931 S/W.

Re: victoria visors
160B
on the 31 SW 4 doors the visors are attached to a block of wood that goes between two of the top bows. on the Victoria`s there is a bigger top bow that the visors are attach too. I just installed the visors in Robert`s 160C yesterday. |
