Nick, most of the cap is original--it is what I call a chop-top. He took a good Gau visor and removed the top, replacing it with the waffle-pattern one in the pic.

I see!
Straying a little bit off topic.....Here is another white "chop top" from Germany !
This one I like with the modifications!

True Story...
2005 i bid on a white top political cap on Manions. Pics weren't the greatest, but for 2500.00 I jumped on it. When it did arrive it was a gross mess. A white top was clearly stitched on in place of the brown top. A 5 year old coulda stitched it better. I started a return and called the credit card company for good measure so as to cover all bases. Now looking back at their nefarious past, I was very fortunate I did get stuck with that lemon. White topped political visors are indeed very rare, very rare, and if encountered should be approached with every bit of skepticism you can muster.
