Thanks for the solution to this puzzle. Heaven knows what a Desoto or perhaps Chrysler tag was doing in a Packard glove compartment but stranger things have happened.

I have read the posts from a number of years ago concerning side mount mirrors and noted that apparently I am not the only person looking for a pair as shown in the 1934 accessories catalog that clamp onto the metal side mount covers. Has anyone found a source? Or perhaps found a pattern that could be used to manufacture these mirrors?

I contacted Jay Fisher last year with no success. He apparently had no stock remaining and was no longer in business.

Does anyone know what this is? I am attempting to attach a photo to this post. It says "Warning Use 10-W Motor Oil Only". I found this brass tag in a glove compartment of a 1934 Packard Super Eight that I purchased last year. I don't think it refers to the crankcase oil or to the Bijur chassis oiling system, since they use heavier weight oils. I have no clue what this is and would appreciate hearing from the collective wisdom in this forum.

thanks
