67 LWB - One Sun visor??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Mt Man Chad · 10-28-2007, 01:23 PM

I recently brought home a 67 LWB and been doing some cleaning inside and ready to replace front rotted fenders and put a good hood on it.

I was working on the interior last weekend and the driver side sun visor had a wasp nest behind it and was trashed, I was ready to install two good green ones I have.

I went to screw in the passenger side BUT it is not even drilled for a visor and never appears to have had one???????

Has anybody ever come across this?

cdowns · 10-28-2007, 01:30 PM

it wasnt uncommon back then for basic trucks// i hadd a van that only had a drivers seat and 1visor// the 60 ford pickup i'm working on had only 1visor and driver only wiper

uno67 · 10-28-2007, 02:41 PM

same deal on my truck but if you look close on mine you can see the dimples where the holes need to go

CJJ67 · 10-28-2007, 04:01 PM

I have a '67 short bed stepside and mine is the same, only the driver's side has a sun visor. When I get to that point I will drill the holes for a passenger side visor.

67_C-30 · 10-28-2007, 05:54 PM

My '67 C-30 didn't come with a passenger side visor or a rear view mirror. It has dimples where they would have mounted, but were never drilled.

**passthebuck** · 10-28-2007, 06:16 PM

my red 67 is the same - one visor

bad6772 · 10-28-2007, 06:38 PM

< my 67 was also a one visor truck...did add another one though........

wibilly · 10-29-2007, 03:09 AM

i have two 67's one with[cst with air and a plane jane swb with only one, i guess i never looked at it close enough to notice any dimples

Gray Ghost · 11-03-2007, 08:02 AM

I have a 67 stepper and it's the same way...I thought it was weird but I've seen two others since.

aventur1 · 11-03-2007, 08:54 AM

My 71 only came with one, there's plastic covers where it should be.

Guy58 · 11-03-2007, 11:54 AM

I also have a 1967 stepside with only a driver side sun visor. I thought it strange and did notice dimples where the passanger visor should be. My question is if I want to install the passanger side one do I just need to drill holes or do I need a plate behind the metal to hold it in place? Thanks.

**michael bustamante** · 11-03-2007, 12:59 PM

My 67 came with 2 sunvisors but only the driver side rear view mirror. the pass. side is smooth. also, my interior door skins have no holes to mount the arm rests. and it`s a custom cab

CPNEJR · 11-03-2007, 02:27 PM

the passenger visor was an option as was a rear view mirror on the inside and on the passenger side. since back then it only needed one rear view mirror on the vehicle they were optional but after 67 i believe the you had to have all three. the armrest were also optional i believe.

post some pics of that bad boy. want to see it.

Mt Man Chad · 11-03-2007, 03:56 PM

These are the only currently pics i have. I'm putting a complete matching front clip on it this weekends from another truck I parted. It currently has a completey rotted Core support and both fenders are gone. From the firewall and back it's pretty clean.

I have allways like the small window cabs!

davidh · 11-03-2007, 04:11 PM

I'd buy them all day for that price. They are hard not to when they are that cheap. clean rockers to boot. I call them work trucks, once someone scratched their head and asked how many work trucks do you need? LOL

**michael bustamante** · 11-03-2007, 05:09 PM

I guess even the wasps know a good truck. My 49 GMC came with a couple of good sized wasps nest in it from years past. One was good sized too. under the gas pedal

Y'all should start a new "club" to put down in your avatar area. Instead of "The 4x4 Club" or "The Disc Brake Club", it could say "The One Visor Club" or maybe the "MonoVisor Club"

PanelDeland · 11-03-2007, 06:51 PM

Think a visor is a strange option?Look at a Panel,the passenger seat is an option.

Gray Ghost · 11-03-2007, 07:11 PM

The panel also has a very unique floor there with traction strips. It's almost shaped like a ramp.

davidh · 11-03-2007, 09:34 PM

most of the time one 's I run across with one visor are 3/4 ton. Im not sure about the option. Never seen a glove box id say "passenger sun visor" as on option
