The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Fulton Sun Shield 807 questions??

Ok, I'm finding bits and pieces of info on this sun
shield. Where would the model number be stamped on
the original Fulton visor?

The instructions that I've found say you can identify
the 807 by, "the wings are squared off on the ends."
What do that mean?????

And the 800 (passenger car visor) has "the edges
rounded where it meats the cab near the drip rail."
What's meant by that????

Also Tiny talked about the difference in the "dog
bones" for the AD vs. the earlier art deco? Any body
have pictures of the two styles?

<CLICK> If you look at the illustration 9A and illustration 10 they show the dogbone bracket with the upper leg about half way up the bracket. That's the type my body style would have used. The visor I bought had the type of bracket shown in illustration 9C. If you look carefully the upper leg is much closer to the top of the bracket. They are made out of malleable aluminum so we were able to make it work OK. The 807 must be a later model because I see this site doesn't have the info on it. It could be similar to the models shown.

Denny,

Take a look at this link compared to the link in the previous post. You should be able to see the difference you are asking about.

By the way it looks like both if these links fall under the same web site.
807 Installation Instruction

Yep Richard, the 807 was the standard visor made to fit the
AD's. I'd like to hear from someone as to where the model
number is stamped. I'm sure it would be on the inside and I
would think it would be behind the center section panel where
you wouldn't see it. From what I've seen it looks like the side
brackets for the AD's are, just like the ones in 9c rather than 9a.

Excellent link Chuck! Yep, Denny the end brackets in Chuck's link are the same as the ones we modified to use on my car. The ones in 9A are the brackets to fit my body style without modification. I can't help with the model number.

Had that site in my favorites for a while Chuck, wish I could
print it out but the web page or my confuser won't let me print
or copy it. That does show the installation on the AD very
clearly. Still would like to hear from someone as to the
location of the stamped model number and the visual description
that I was asking about. I was going to look at the visor but I
wanted to make sure it was a "Fulton" and that it was an "807"
that I was looking at before I shelled out any money for it.

Would it by chance be on the Fulton medallion on the end bracket? If you want to print part of a site and they have it restricted you can press the Print Screen key. That puts a screen shot of the image showing on your monitor onto your clipboard. You can then paste that image into about any document or image viewer and print that.

Yeah, done that, printed out about 12 pages. But when you do
that you're printing the whole screen, headings and menu bars
and all complete with that advertisements on the side bar.

My computer lost the power to the power supply early this summer
and it had all of my pass words, photoshop, drawing programs,
MS office and a bunch of other things that made me look like I
knew what I was talking about. Sure do miss that computer, it's
like I suddenly developed dementia. I use to screen print sites
that wouldn't let you copy and past them into photoshop, do a
little cropping and make a complete nice looking document that
I could save to my archives, which are also gone now. At least
they're on the old hard drive. I'd like to upgrade to a new
computer but then I'd have to buy all new software and I just
can't afford all that expense right now.

Trucks Guys, let's talk about trucks.

Welllll Charlie, thought Richard and me were havin' a nice
conversation and since him and I were the only ones
participating and since I been askin' bout the Model number
stamp location on a "real" Fulton since Saturday and dint seem
to be getting anywhere with that.....so in another thought, I
thought I might take the opportunity to vent my frustration at
my inability to find someone that can help me get my confuser
up and running now that it's been sitting idle for the whole
summer with all my seven years of TRUCK archive on it, all my
favorites and all that stuff that helps me post pictures and
other stuff when someone has a question about their trucks that
I might have the answer to.
How bout that, said it all in one sentence.
