Can anyone tell if this is a factory '32 rearview mirror mount? On our 3W the old mirror wouldn't hold position so my brother bought a reproduction assembly that bolted right in. This is the one that he removed and was going to toss it then thought better about it. The 3W has been in our family for over 60 years and has been drag raced and rodded but never butchered. We would like to save any factory '32 parts.
Thanks, Tom

Not even close; the '32 deluxe coupe uses the same rear view mirror and mirror bracket as all the other '32 closed body types. Depending the source of the reproduction, it could well be a very good one as at least someone has taken the time and effort to do it right, with the possible exception of the finish.
