    Does anyone know where I might find a pair of these?
    I would also be interested in see some pictures of these on some cars too if anyone has some!

    Thanks,

    Jeff

    National Chevy Assc. has them for 53' ,54' chevys not sure what other years.
     
  4. Are you talking about the "Jeffrey Allen" visors? Similar look, but they just clip over the stock bezels. Lots of places have them.
    These are one piece and replace the stock bezels.

    Yes, I was thinking they were "Jeffery Allen's" but now see what you mean . I've never even seen this before ,pretty cool.
     
  7. Moon Eyes sell's the kind that Sancho mentioned but they are currently out of stock, I have no idea when they will have them available again. I have been looking for a pair for my Olds but so far Moon is the only place that I have found them. If someone else is selling them, I would sure like to know who!

    43763494-1904-4F27-A5B6-85D2C13FF51A.jpeg I bought this set for my ‘49 about two years ago at a local swap meet for $65 ... figure I stole them at that price. Lots of small pitting but way better than nothing. And just a couple of weeks ago I saw a beautiful pair on a Facebook vintage Chevy group for $600. Tempted me but I resisted.

  12. Well I thought that I had ordered them, just got a message from N.C.A.C. that they are on back order and they have no idea when they will be getting them.

  17. F.Y.I., I sent an email to KNS last week concerning their Jeffrey Allen style stainless steel headlight visor part number KC3402. I received a reply this afternoon saying that they had discontinued them but Night Prowlers was one of the last to purchase them. I am now awaiting an answer from Night Prowler, I will post their response.

  18. Talked to Night Prowlers this morning and they are out of stock and don't expect to get anymore in. Apparently KNS Accessories and United Pacific's visors were made by the same company and according to KNS they were discontinued. Waiting to hear back from United Pacific.

    Well, from the looks of the above, I'd better ask, Does anybody have one that they want to sell? If so, send me a PM with a realistic:) price. Thanks,
     
  20. I'm not trying to be a smart ass but you asked for one, does that mean that you only want 1 or 1 pair? The reason that I ask, Night Prowlers said that he had one on the shelf. One as in 1 not one as in one pair!
     
  21. Not exactly what you are looking for but as an alternative idea look at Harley Davidson P/N 69733-05 Visor Style Headlamp Trim Ring. $43.95 each. Maybe?

    Not sure if it could be engineered to work as it is used in conjunction with the factory headlamp trim ring but maybe....
     
  22. I bought these bezels at the Iola swap meet about 4 years ago. I had no idea what they were for or how they would fit my car. They had them in a milk crate with about 4 or 5 more. He wanted $8 for the pair and I talked him down to $5. Now I wish I bought all of them!!!

  23. shovelheadrider... I have wondered about using them but not sure how they would be attached.

    Lookin' good! With that split at the bottom, they look like what shovelheadrider was talking about...

    Sorry guys, KNS had to discontinue them. Not enough sales. To give you guys an idea...it took YEARS just to sell 100 pairs.
    We can always bring them back if there's a large enough demand. Minimum of 500 pairs.
