Re: Rearward vision (mirrors)

Hi all,
I have mirrors mounted on my sidemounts, they are replica Packard ones sourced in the UK. The word I would use to describe them is not printable here so use your imagination, but what the heck, they look well!
As I am driving a left hand drive car on the left hand side of the road, rear vision, especially when pulling out from the kerb is very important. My right hand mirror gives me a fine view of the road, unfortunately it is the bit in front of the rear wheel!
My left hand mirror is carefully placed to be obscured by the driving lamp, its very useful if you want to light up your face to scare small children and people of a nervous disposition!
My Packard has 2 flag staffs attached to the horn mountings, (for Royal weddings, or people with loads of money, I'm not too particular!) they could be used to mount mirrors with very little modification.
Pat.
