My 1930 Roadster does this if the windshield (to which the mirror is attached) is propped open. Complete blur. When windshield is closed it’s no problem.

Hello, have a 31 roadster, if top is off mirror shakes get a little if top is on , these open cars are a little flimsy.

Re: Mirror Vibration

65 years ago there was an article in some magazine on how to read the reflection in the mirror due to vibration. There was a certain pattern for a loose rod, another for loose main bearings, etc. In retrospect, I think it was a joke.
