mirror only for clock-mirror?

[jdempsey]

Hey guys,
I'm nearing the completion of the restoration of a nice '31 Vicky...doing the small stuff now. I'm looking for the mirror only for a clock mirror combo...

I have a nice Kohler wind-up clock that is running nicely..just need the glass. Still have the glass that came with it but its losing it's silver.

The glass is 6 1/4" x 2 9/16" x 3/16"....the hole for the clock (no silver) is 2".
Anyone have any suggestions as to where I can get just the glass?

I would think a good glass shop could cut and grind what you need.

Try looking in "V8" ford parts places.

If the original glass is still in good shape, just have it re-silvered.

Many years ago I had Chaudron Glass & Mirror Co., Inc, in Baltimore, MD re-silver a water damaged antique mirror and they did a fine job and it was surprisingly cheap too. I think they have been in business for over 113 years in the US.

Here is the link to their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Chaud...301767&sk=info

I understand that other companies in the MD, DC, VA area offer re-silvering of glass, but they send the job to Chaudron in the end.

Fordially,

PS: I'm not affiliated in anyway with Chaudron Glass & Mirror other than being a satisfied customer many years ago.

JDempsy: By the way, how is the clock attached to the mirror? My buddy has a '31 Vicky and took the clock out some months ago to have it repaired. Well, now that it's fixed, we can't recall how the heck it's held in. A photo would really help.

Mike,
There is a clamp with a hole for the clock. It clamps to the top and bottom of the glass pressing the clock against the back of the glass.

I sent my mirror clock to Bert's Model A in Denver and they sent it to somebody that replaced the mirror using my original clock.

Thanks for all the tips. I'm in the process of contacting those places now.

One of our vendors sells the mirrors. I have extra if you need one.
