Re: [AMC-list] What I Did this Weekend

[Bruce Griffis <bruce.griffis@xxxxxxxxx>]

If that wagon has a spare R mirror and you don't mind parting with it
- I'd love a second mirror for when I'm pulling the camper! If it has
one and you don't need it - just let me know how much. If you're going
dual mirrors on your car - I certainly understand.

I'm trying to figure out what to do about the sunvisors, I'll probably
just bring them to a shop - but that won't be until after I replace
the windshield gasket and rear window gasket on my car.

Sounds like you had a great run! Good to hear.
