We crave what we cannot have

I came across some NOS pop out frames in the classifieds but I was a day late!

It would have been damn nice to not have to fight the four tiny screws to
get mine apart.  One of my goals with this restoration is to NOT chrome plate anything.  It's cheaper and faster to buy NOS parts or someone else's finished chromed parts.

I hope I come across another pair some day.

One of the super rare parts came out of hiding today...the driving instructor's mirror.  This one is in pretty nice condition but would need some new chrome to make it show worthy.  I was tempted to jump on it but quickly realized that I am really not all that interested in it.  I'd have rather had the pop out frames!

I'm going to hold on to the belief that 'good things come to those who wait'.
