Looks even better in person I'll bet, that is one beautiful representation of a job well done!!! You have the 1951 driver's side mirror on there. The mirror was bent down or made that way at the factory to prevent the '51 vent window from smashing into it when said window was full open and the door was opened. Since your model does not have vent windows your model correct mirror is in a more upright position. Check the Stovebolt Gallery Page in the 50's to note the difference.

Rocinante, like Don Quixote, he is awkward, past his prime, and engaged in a task beyond his capacities.
