Window Rain Shield Question

So is this window rain shield original to the truck, an option, or an after market add on? I've only got the passenger side.

Door number three. Aftermarket add-on.

That's what I figured. I was hoping it was the rare thousand dollar part that would pay for part of the build.

Throw it on ebay with some story about how it was part of a land speed record prototype project and see what bites.

Merc, I had to laugh when you posted this. Last year on ebay there was a guy selling an "authentic" Ford trumpet horn that "was found only on 1954 F100s". Now I don't know everything about F100's and thought there may be a chance he had a rare find but I thought something smelled fishy. I contacted him and repeatedly asked for a part number or even a FOMOCO logo on the horn. He kept swearing up and down it was a true Ford part. After days of back and forth he finally admitted it was an aftermarket horn he got off a Studebaker. I still laugh when I think about that conversation.

As for the window visor, here is a possible tagline: "Own a piece of automobile history, one-of-a-kind window visor from H. Ford's own truck" LOL
