any ideas for an outside visor for my '49 f1?

 

I'm lusting after one of those myself!!

take a look at arrowheadfreds truck, he has the look nailed IMHO. John

 

There are usually several Fulton visors up for auction on Ebay at any given time.

A guy named Julie showed me how to mount it...slim

 

I found an old visor at a swap meet. $35, I think. I had to make my own brackets, no big deal...slim

 

I have a few more but hanging on to them for now.

 

Well I wonder what mine would look like one... I just don't know if it will go good with the rake I want on the truck....

 

I always wondered if you could still see the stop lights when you pull up with one of those visors on there. I like the look but I have to admit I've never ridden in one & I would be worried about craning my neck all over to see the dang lights.

For seeing the traffic lights, get a traffic light viewer. They work great! I have a Fulton visor on my 46 Coupe and the viewer has saved my neck from straining.

 

Alright Steve I'll bite - What is a traffic light viewer?

I already need one since I'm 6'4" and aready can't see the lights when I'm at a light... And that's without a chop top or a visor...




Here is one in use

 

Ha...I knew I'd need "More Stuff".

I don't even notice the visor when i'm driving. Have no trouble with redlights. Back in the day redlights were small and not as bright.

 

Hey you learn something new every day on here - I've never seen one of those before. Another purchase to get - won't my wife be happy!
