About the sunvisors, it seems that the passenger sunvisor was optional those first years. It's interesting to see that this car seems to have a lot of optional items: some details on the third thumbnail that were also optional from the 1956 model year on such as the clock ( in the glove box door ) and the Becker Mexico radio; there's also the dash grab handle, another optional. In what concerns the side chrome trim - and although it came with the Coupé version - it seems that it was another optional to the Roadster version.
