Vanity mirror for the OWMBO
In ages past I had a '33 Tudor with a oval beveled glass vanity mirror on the passenger sun visor.
Looking around for another one and the only place that seems to list them is Ekler's and they have been "out of stock" it seems forever. Wonder if anyone may know of another source? Thanks |

Kinda like, "yes, I wear the pants in the relationship. So what if she tells me which ones."

Re: Vanity mirror for the OWMBO
The 38-41 style vanity mirror 81A-17676 (very much like your photo) was reproduced and sold by someone in southern Ohio. I think there was a death in the family and I am not sure if they are still sold. The fellow who made the mirror also reproduced the 40 rear gravel deflector. I do not have contact info.

I had an oval mirror made for our '41 at my local glass/mirror shop.

If c&g doesn't work out, fordor41's solution seems quite feasible.

Re: Vanity mirror for the OWMBO
Agree with fordor41. Go to your local glass company and talk to them.

Re: Vanity mirror for the OWMBO
Early Ford Store in CA used to have the vanity mirrors in their goodie show case. All Ford in Campbell,CA might have one also.
Here is one I had a few yrs ago. It was a repro. Last edited by deuce lover; 06-26-2021 at 02:18 AM. |
