    Does anyone here know if anyone repops the 70 Trishield mirrors? The previous owner put incorrect sport mirrors on the car and it bothers me. Tyring to find an original l/s and r/s is tough, and expensive. Any help???

    Warm up you wallet. I recall having $1500-2000 in my last NOS pair for a resto.

    I know it, that's why I was hoping for the magic repop fairy to come and grant my Christmas wishes! :pray:

    Thank you! Two months ago they would have been mine. I blow $600 now and the only other thing I'm getting for Christmas is a divorce! Car plans foiled by poor timing again! :cool:

    Frankly it looks like a too good to be true hoax. Did anyone bite and get them or get bitten?

    I was thinking that they probably dont look as good in real life as they do on Craigslist. Plus the drivers side is a manual not a remote. Price seems in line

    They are real and it is a remote driver's side, not a manual. They look exactly the same in real life as they do on CL, as the picture on CL is a picture of the real life mirror, lol. :kodak: :spank: :moonu: :pp

    Is the bracket for the rs and ls the same, or different?

    Brackets do transpose. They don't know left from right, same as fender emblems.

    Hi folks,

    Just checked my inventory. I have a nice (better than nice) manual mirror for driver side. Minor pitting that would not be noticed unless one looked up close. Even then, this mirror could be resotred to "show quality" w/ minor work, if that is your goal.

    It is evening, and I will look closer in the morn. If you are interested and want pics, send me a PM w/ your e-mail, as I haven't had luck posting pics on here; guess I'm too dumb.

    Best,

    Ranger,
    Aiken, SC
