Locating a sun visor

Ive done a thorough search and haven't come up with anything, so I figured I'd start a new thread to ask. Does anybody know where I can find a sun visor for my '77. All the dealers that I have talked to don't have any or know where to get one, so if anybody can give me a lead on one that would be great. Thanks guys

Do you mean the interior visor that folds up to the headliner or the Lund visor that mounts on the exterior of the truck?

the exterior visor, like the lund kind. Theres another company called Go Industries that makes them as well, but were discontinued in the 90's, so to find one on a warehouse shelf somewhere is unlikely. even if I could find a used one somewhere I would take it.

I have seen a few on ebay from time to time. They are hard to locate. Try craigslist, posting a wanted add there and here.

Thanks for the tip. I called them and the diddnt have them though. What about using one off of a 75-91 ford van? From pictures, the roofs look to be pretty similar in shape. Unless anyone has a reason it wont work, I'm gonna be on the lookout for a van around to snag some measurements off of

Uhm, ditto, if you find a source I'd like to know about it too, this is one of the last few things i have left for getting the look right on my bronc.

Wish now I'd taken the one a buddy was gonna give me if it fit... was from a 73-88 cab style Chevy... was too narrow for my cab though. Could have cut it and glassed it/widened it in the center, but thought it was too much hassle if I could buy one for the ford... Should have done it, it looks like.

I have one in my garage rafters that I wasn't planning on using. I checked into shipping for someone before and it was going to be over $100.00 just for the shipping.

I had some pics but can't find them now but I can take more. If you are interested PM me.
