What happened to azsteve ???azsteve wrote:Hey Ron, here's the pictures I promised of the mirror head...
diameter is 117 mm.... and that is with the slight arch in the backside. I don't have calipers but I would guesstimate maybe 2-4 mm less without the bow...
the side measures 9 mm.
I am about 2 hours from heading up to CO to visit Grenadier (Wade) and pick up some parts from him. This is a in and out trip, unfortunately not enough time for more than this... but I will bring along the mirror and if you like, let me know and I will drop if off on my way back home.

Michael, here is the original mirror post and the fiting on the end for the mirror head. I can fabricate an exact fitting for you this one i will keep. You cant have TOM though, he just wouldnt get out of the picture.

Re: Fabricated firewall mounted mirror post
Since Michael needs it for his '66, the mirror needs to mount on the other side of the firewall. I don't think the mount is ambidextrous. 
Tom is a very handsome kitty.

Re: Fabricated firewall mounted mirror post
What is the difference? I dont see it. The mounting holes on the mirror post are cemetrical and the post is centered "inline" with the holes. i cant see where the difference is. Is the Australian mounting holes different?RiverPatrol wrote:Since Michael needs it for his '66, the mirror needs to mount on the other side of the firewall. I don't think the mount is ambidextrous.
