Would this tunic have a normal political leaders visor, or what other headgear would it have?
The brownshirt is unissued and is missing the colored collar piping that would have indicated the level of the NSDAP the owner served as. If this was my decision, I would pass on this shirt as it has too many problems. As Lars said, it will always be a put together piece. You are missing the correct buttons, collar insignia and collar piping. In my opinion, buying this is a waste of money.

Mr. Coleman has done well very to assist you. I'd follow his advice, which I agree with, and give him a special thank you....good luck sir.
Thank you Mr. Coleman for the advice I will think about it today and over night, I might buy it and restore it or I won't buy it and let someone else buy it.
I don't know but I'll try to find it
Watch Ebay DE for the piping. Sometimes it shows up there, mostly in reproduction form but every so often a legit piece is offered. If you are able to find the tabs, piping, and buttons to correctly restore the shirt, it will always be just that, a restored shirt. Worth only the sum of it's parts IMO. You must weigh the decision of spending the extra funds to make it correct, leaving it as is or holding out for something more correct.
Ok thanks I'll check Ebay and yes I will restore it, because I plan to keep it for awhile.

And if I sold it I wouldn't sell it for a full price non restored one, I'd sell it for less
