5/08/23: Today, after a long winter break, it was time to get back to working on our truck. The existing mirror installed on my truck, clearly didn’t belong there. Although period correct, it vibrated so badly, it was nearly useless. So to remediate the issue, I ordered a period correct, day/night mirror, with the correct mount for my truck from eBay and received it today.

Whomever installed the existing mirror, drilled two additional holes in the interior windshield trim, so me being me, couldn’t just leave those holes. I removed both sides and welded in the holes. In addition, I removed a few dents, straightened out a few areas them sanded and painted to match my interior. Their now hanging on my drying “Rack” waiting to be installed.

It feels great to get back to work on my truck!
