My 32 Tudor did not have sunvisors when I bought it. If I am lucky enough to find a set, does anyone have measurements for proper screw location in installing them?

There were two different types of sunvisors used in '32 sedans, such as yours, depending when in that model year the car was produced. Most likely your car would have had the center-mounted or early version. You can establish this by feeling for the clinch nuts in the steel header panel shich would be concealed by the upholstery material covering that panel. As the words imply,these would be mounted half way on either side of the center on the nearly-vertical surface of the header panel with two #12 oval head screws about 3" apart for each visor. The later, less common visors were mounted near the ends of the visors. Again, feel for the clinch nuts beneath the upholstery material on the header panel, but on the horizonal surface of that panel in this case. They are #10 and in pairs of two about one inch apart, fore and aft (four screws per visor). This same type of sun visor was used on all '33 model sedans, coupes, and Victorias, which makes it easier to find good original examples of this type. As suggested in another response to one of your earlier questions, you will this information plus that regarding your mirror question and a whole lot more in the Club's new book, "The 1932 Ford, A Production Chronicle and Restoration Guide", which is available through this website.
