Re: 69 Custom 30 wrecker restoration

Oh I was at another members today and guess what I found.... Huh huh can ya guess ??? tune in tomorrow to find out. LOL I couldn't do that to ya. I deserve a BIG pat on the back for this.. I found ANOTHER pair of your "flyswatter" mirror brackets and maybe the arms too... (waiting for standing ovation) the "arms" are adjustable tho, that might be better . I told him that you were looking for some,he said he would contact you. if you dont hear from him let me know and Ill remind him about it. Keep up the good work I wanna see this done by spring (kind of a tall order huh) Coop

Cab went on like a dream! The new floor pan had all the brackets already installed and they got everything in the right place. Just set it down on the new cushions and drop the bolts in.

So... how come you find all the fly swatter mirrors and I don't? Although this shortage of mirror heads is disturbing.

Not sure if these came with adjustables but they may have. ?? I think the older ones like 48's etc did. Would love to see them but haven't heard from anyone yet.

So I have to get this done by spring? NO problem. Spring '13 it is!
