Ooops, I left that out.

Because a Google image search of the above photo gives me this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/301295594649

There have been a bunch of scam ads for Bug and Buses this week, be suspect of anything that seems too cheap and don't send ANYONE money via Western Union.

It's too much for a '64- even in PA. Nothing special about it. It really should be rated a 5 because of all it's lackings...

Not really a whine, but a question: aren't these basic motorcycle mirrors? Especially considering how they mount and the long necks?

That's what they look like to me. They look like the set that were on an old cb550 i used to have.

I agree..Ive noticed his ads for several years and always wondered if he has ever made a sale since he has no feedbacks.

"Near pristine condtion except for storage dings." I've seen blind taggers apply Krylon more evenly- on accident. That cat's prep work on his fan shroud says it all. There is absolutely nothing trustworthy about that pepper mill.
On the bright side, I'm glad to see not all paint in Iowa is used as an inhalant...
