GMC gets to wear Corvair rear view mirror
After my Rear view mirror falling off the truck for the last time, i decided to take some much needed action.... I stole the mirror off my 65' corvair and mounted it into the truck.... I couldn't find the power drill, so i had to use a screw driver, anyone who's ever manually drilling holes into these trucks, knows what i went through, i cannot find my usb cable for pics, but they'll be up shortly i'm sure.... Looks and fits great.... It'd take someone that knows these trucks to know the difference.

Re: GMC gets to wear Corvair rear view mirror
When I first got my '67 Suburban in 1993, the PO had glued on a '72 &-later style rearview mirror. Problem was it was a cheap off-shore knock off and wobbled considerably at freeway speed. [When you really need to keep an eye peeled for cops.] Years earlier, when I was junking the family '64 Olds wagon, my Dad said to save anything usefull. So I still had the rearview mirror bracket. I recognized it as the same as the one in my '68 Stepside, only chromed, not flat black, so I screwed it right on. The holes were already there from the original.
Worked great.

Take a flathead screwdriver and plug into your USB port. Wrap a wire clothes hanger around the metal shaft of the screwdriver no less than 4 coils worth. Then stick the other end of the clothes hanger in the side of your camera. That should work for you. Can't wait to see the pics.
