Hi all, My first post. I am restoring a '53 Plymouth Cranbrook convertible club coupe. I have just about every fitting in place but the car is missing its sun visors ( brackets and visors ), and they seem very difficult to find. Having looked at 54 Belvedere convertibles and similar year Coronets, I am guessing that the parts might be interchangeable. Can anyone give me some advice on this? Thanks in advance.

hello guys, so this isn't my first foray into the world of dodge products(long sad story) but so far the furthest. I picked up what was to be a running, non driving 53 Cranbrook w/ Hy-drive to play with while I'm doing a resto on a 75 ford super camper special and also my Dad can take it to the local car cruises so he don't have to crawl in and out of my brother in laws Camaro. first problem I had was the engine wouldn't turn over so I pulled head. lightly stuck on #3 & #5 pistons and several valves stuck open. I got it all loose except #4 exhaust valve is still sticking. need to pull that valve and really go over it as it is really tight. then it is on to the brakes and new fuel system. any good tips and tricks for a guy that has spent most of his wrenching on old tractors and one lung hit and miss engines. here is a picture of my new toy last week, when I bought it.
