Location: California | Hi,I am trying to find a pair of the 1960 style MoPar "Clear-View" tinted plexiglass sunviors for my 60 Plymouth. These are not the same as the 1957-58 style which have different shaped,much shorter shades. any help would be appreciated. |

Location: Perth Australia | Ultra rare, I think I have only seen 1 set and that was on a 59 desoto (could be wrong there)
Made of Perspex, so the UV killed them
Best of luck, but I would try to make a set if you have a picture of what you want

Location: California | Thanks "Ttotired",any chance you may have a photo of a car with them installed or perhaps a photo from a Mopar accessory catalog? Were the 1960 style visors made out of a thinner or different material than the 57-58-59 style? |

Hi,those are not the 1960 style visors even though it says that in the title. those are the shorter ones for the 1957-1958 and 1959? cars. The 1960 style is much longer and doesn't have the "pebbeling" at the top as these do. |

Yup, I almost bought them but fortunately asked for measurements first. Way too small for a 1960/61 fullsize. |

You were wise to do so. the size difference is huge.
The 57-59 style visors don't seem to come up for sale often,but the 60-61 style seem to be far more elusive.I guess most folks back then didn't go for that option and the ones who did installed them and they were damaged by 58 years of exposure to the sun. I figured it was worth a try asking here as someone may have a decent used set laying around. |

Location: Layton, Utah | I have one out of a 60 DeSoto. It has a crack. I looked for it tonight but was unsuccessful. Shed was getting pretty hot, I will spend more time digging when it's a bit cooler. |
