21st series visor.
Posted by HH56 On 2017/9/24 11:56:55
Could anyone say if either visor is a Packard offering. I see some differences and am thinking one of the visors may be an aftermarket because of what I consider to be a poor fit and odd braces but can anyone say for sure.
Not quite apples to apples on the photo angles but the top photo is my dads 47 flipped around to give a comparable view. Mom in the passenger seat and that is me on her lap peeking out the vent widow (no rear facing safety car seats in those days). The bottom is of a Craigslist 47 just posted in that thread. Both are Deluxe 21st series Clippers. The light car seems to have some braces and a large gap that I don't see on the other visor or are they there and just hidden by the angle and poor photo.
Am mostly just curious because with my dad you needed a crowbar on his wallet when it came to factory accessories. He would get a basic radio and heater but I can't see him paying for a factory visor unless the dealer loaded the car and he had no choice. He would more likely to have had the aftermarket item if it was cheaper.
