C-3 Sunvisors

[Harmon C.]

I was checking some basket weave sunvisors and I hae two different types. One is a little longer and almost square. My question is were both styles used in production or is one style aftermarket?

Re: C-3 Sunvisors

I'm pretty new in the C3 stuff but I'll give it a go:

Early C3 sunvisors were more square than later ones (change early '69).

Ok C3 experts, shoot me now... ;-)

greetings,

1968 visosrs are unique, like many other items on that model. 1969--1976 are the same I believe.

basket weave vs. comfortweave

Wasn't the 1968 visor trimmed in madrid vinyl? Then there were at least 2 if not 3 1969 comfortweave sun visors. There may have been a very early 1969 visor which was similar to the 1968 shape. Then there was a more angled visor shape used until somewhere around mid October 1968. Finally, a rectangular but not angled visor was used for the rest of the 1969 production run.

See Rick Bizzoco's book for photos of the different shapes.
