To Much of a good thing....65 wagon mirrors+spotlight. Too much?

[emmd61]

Hi,

I have a 65 NYer wagon that I am putting together. It has a standard remote mirror on drivers side. I found a nice 65 chrysler spotlight that has a rear facing mirror on it. Would that be a bit too much with two rear facing mirrors on same side?? Any insight or opinion appreciated.

Too much, leave it alone.

Spotlights are for patrol cars and service trucks

The whole thing comes down to: what do you want? If it is a stock specification restoration it may not be backed by the available options. If doing it as a specific car, say a Coroners Wagon, Gentleman Rancher, or Family Vacation Flyer, the spot/mirror would look good. It all comes down to HOW YOU WANT IT. Everybody has an opinion on how it should/could/must be done. In the end though you do your car the way you want. Myself, at a show/cruise, I bypass the checkbook cars for a work in progress, or survivor car. The 100 pt restorations are nice, just not for me.
