Can anyone tell me if the 1950 Buick Super (specifically model 51) came with an exterior windshield sun visor as an option? What about fender skirts?
What other accessories were options that year?

Thanks for the help!

Also, the Super convertible had Power Windows, top and seats. And Dynaflow was an option. It does not look like Power Windows and seats were an option, but rather provided on some of the Super and Roadmaster models. In particular, the Super Convertible, and the Roadmaser Riviera's (2 and 4 doors) and the Convertible.

There was also the up-graded "Wonder-Bar" radio, bumper extensions for the front and rear, and the windshield-washer.

I think back-up lights and the rear license light were also options, IIRC.

A fun car to play with. Happy wrenching,

Thank you for all the information.
I've had this car about a year now, and it's been fun so far. Now I'm buying more parts to replace everything that is worn out.
