1. Nope. No visors. I bought a cheap clip-on visor at an auto-store a
few years ago. It's meant to clip on an existing visor and give extra
protection from the sun (partially transparent). But it clips fine over
the top chrome. You might be able to find one at a local auto-store.
It's no substitute for the real thing, but trying to get visor hardware
from the 67.5's will set you back hundreds of dollars (you need
different clamps too).
2. Don't know about weatherstripping on the top of the chrome, never saw
any.
3. With care, you may be able to remove the side moulding and carefully
bend it back into shape. The early moulding is stainless steel, and
scratches and imperfections can be buffed out, unlike chrome on later
cars.

Subject: 1966 1600 Questions
I've had a couple weeks of driving. Finally back on the road! I have
a
couple questions:
1. Did the 66 1600s come with sun visors? I was sitting at a red
light
with the sun in my eyes and realized that I don't have sun visors. Am
I
supposed to?
2. Is the top of the windshield supposed to have weatherstripping on
it? I
know the front of the soft top has weatherstripping but mine also has
some
on the top to the chrome on the windshield. Is it supposed to be
there?
3. After only a couple weeks on the road, someone somehow pulled the
moulding away from the rear passenger side of the car. It looks like it
was bent
out 90 degrees and then someone tried to push it back into place.
There is no
damage to the paint on the car, so I assume that someone's clothing or
something soft lifted it away from the car. Does anyone have a piece of
moulding
they could part with?
