If you're open to an aftermarket solution the L & R visors from a
Mercedes E-Class model W210 ('95 - '02) fit perfectly in a Pantera and
offer the ability of swiveling the visor to the side and even
telescoping front to back along the side window as needed. They also
have mirrors and lights if you run power to them, and they're very good
quality.
If you get them from a recycler be sure to also get the visor retaining
bracket that holds the visor in place when in the forward position.
They come in different colors, I paid $30 for a pair in perfect
condition.
The installation is fairly simple, you'll need to drill new pilot holes
at the top of the windshield frame for the mounting screws of the visor
and the visor retainer bracket. I put these in my '72 years ago and
have used them often.
