I have been trying to down load these pictures for the last 3 hours. I hoped it works. The problem is the examples on sticky thread did not look the same on photo bucket as mine looked. How I got here I could not tell you, but we did. The picture are not the best, because it was so sunny it was hard to see the screen clearly. You will notice that the mirrors are from a later model corvette, plus the junk radio that was installed buy PO. The paint is in good shape, as is the interior except for door panels. I will do things when money is available. Now if this works I will be happy thanks for letting me vent thanks.

You are one step away from posting the pic. Hit your link to take you to the photobucket page and click on the IMG link (the bottom one) and paste it into your post. You will post the pic then.

What year of Corvette are the mirrors from? I like them better than the factory ones.

I'm not sure what year they are from Priya. I believe they are '77 and newer. They were on the car when I bought it. If you notice the passenger side mirror sets at an odd angle on the base. From what I see there is no adjustment to it. Nice to hear from you Priya. Thanks.

You need to reinstall the luggage rack. Chrome looks good on the back end of a dark colored C3.

You can find NOS unit occasionally on e-bay. Or, you can find new stainless steel racks at Amazon all the time. If you buy an aftermarket item, make sure the bolt spacing is the same as the holes you already have. There are different designs.
