  3. Man, you have to really be hurting for material in your area to drag that one home.Sometimes its just too late to save them.
     
  4. I used to have a 1954 Ford Customline coupe that had mirrors on it like these. I don't know if they were aftermarket or factory mirrors though.

    It's like they pulled the engine and trans the day that picture was taken and drug it to the woods, sad indeed. I wonder what the story is. It looks like he had some cash in that paint.
