Robbie, look for a set of late fifty to early 60s Ford car visors in salvage yards or on the web. They have the same triangular mounts our trucks use. The visor part is a padded vinyl and look much nicer than the original flat Masonite ones I showed you. That is what I am using on my truck. Some even have an inward swivel mount on the end you could use and then you wouldn't have to fill the extra holes the previous owner made.

May have had the radio speaker that mounted in the center of the windshield header. See the Mid Fifty catalog.
