  The attached restoration took 3 and a half years to complete. She is a joy to drive. I have two queries that someone might have the answer for:

a) The car is Bright Vineyard Green - what would be the correct carpet color / correct floor mat color?

b) Did the car originally have sun visors for the driver and passenger? If so, who might be able to supply NOS or High Quality reproduction parts?

The car in the picture is 5th generation (my great great grandmother's) and single family. I have the purchase receipt and the license plate is the original number. Any help towards bringing this project closer to perfection would be much appreciated.

  Your family car is beautiful! The rubber floor mat is Benton gray in color. Sunvisors were not offered for open cars in 37.
