Continental Outside Rear View Mirrors

[Phil Knapp]

Does anybody know of a source for these mirror heads?

My 1941 Continental left side mirror has become very floppy and will not hold an adjustment. Pretty scary to drive since the car has poor visibility at best.

I have "borrowed" the right side mirror head which is purely ornamental anyway because it cannot be seen from the driver's seat. These are possibly the original mirrors and are 4 1/2 inches in diameter.

I stole the mirror head from my 1947 Continental which is a Dick Schell reproduction from around 1967 and is 4 inches in diameter. Since Dick is no longer with us, we don't know what his source for the mirrors was.

Check with Narraganset Phil, it seems to me I got the name of the person making the reproductions from them as I needed a mirror head also. I ended up just buying new mirrors.

Phil, did you find what you needed to fix the mirror? Just ran across some paperwork of Bob Drake Reproductions: Oregon (800-221-3673) and it made me think of your past thread discussion. Don't know if they have Zephyr or just Ford, but if you only need the glass head, it may not matter. Also, Dennis Carpenter Ford Restoration Parts (704-786-8139) in Concord NC-up the road from Lowes Charlotte track, was very welcoming to the Zephyr Club at the track this past spring for the GOF Meet, and they make the rear view mirrors as well for Ford. Gave us a tour of the factory and they make many many nice quality items, many catalogs available too.
