Anyone ever see the After Market Side View Mirrors? Anyone know where they can be purchased? I've seen some that were small chrome Round ones, that looked pretty sweet. Any Info would be great - Thanks All!

Lunchbox has some custom mirrors on his bagged wagon...looks pretty sweet for the theme of his ride. I wish that Street Scene would have done a mirror for our wagons but they didn't and it's probably never going to happen now.

Thanks ChefHHR - Yep thats them I found a Picture in the gallery of his mirrors! These are pretty sweet, but thats just one opinion.

Yeah man, they look nice, but not really functional ( passenger side is useless ). The mirrors are just generic hot rod mirrors from eBay, but the bases were made from the stockers ( chopped em up and resin casted the filler plates ). Pretty much anything for our rides has to be custom built, so keep that in mind

they are called "Swan" mirrors. Check out ebay or google i've seen them on both.
not practical for a panel though...i think they look great as well

Also search Ebay for Swan Mirrors, 34 on there right now.

Plenty to choose from out there.

I was thinking of adding a set to my Panel, but not until my Supercharger project is done. Maybe get a set in the Spring and put them on.

Should look nice, but won't be seeing much.
So still thinking about it.





I was also thinking about actual '55 Chevy or '55 Chevy pick up truck mirrors as well, since I have the '55 Chevy Tail Lights.





These '55 Chevy mirrors even have blinker arrows built in.



IF I did them, the Ultimate Goal would be to also Include old fashioned Vent Windows. were the stock mirrors are now.

Sweet! Thanks for the links NOT quite sure I'm ready to disconnect the electric mirrors just yet but man, these certainly look sweet and tempting.....Maybe get some scrap yard mirror mount plates, fab them up, and make them interchangeable? @LUNCHBOX Were these hard to replace?

Haven't really looked at what the teard own process would be....i.e. door panel removal, etc.....This would be a pretty cool little project though....Hmmmm I may just have to see if the local scrap yard have any HHR's.

Keeping this MOD in mind.....

OMG I am so digging the taillights. Please explain how you did that? I think I am in love with those lights.

I realize this is an old thread...but hopeful he is still around.

They were a kit, which is no longer available
