Title: Wing Mirror
Post by: bruciebonuz on 28 January, 2013, 12:27:21 PM
I have one of these:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Chrome-Racing-Mirror-Italy-Ferrari-Maserati-Lamborghini-Sebring-Style-/290833475767?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D5193048631640625352%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D290833475767%26

Whilst the asking price would seem a little steep (!) does anyone know anything about it ?  I picked it up a few years back as I liked the design but may sell it if its anywhere near as valuable as this chap thinks it is (its only suitable for LHD cars so no good for me).

My Fanalone hasnt got a wing mirror fitted but I believe the Sebring Mach 1 is the right one for it....does anyone know if these were always fitted to the wing as standard and mine has just lost it along the way?

The Fanalone RHD Autotest report the the Gold portfolio has a sebring (like) mirror on the right hand wing.

Most Fanalone rally cars seem to be not fitted with any mirrors as who cares who is behind!!

Plenty of period type mirrors at much more reasonable price about, unless you 'MUST' have the correct item; other items this person is selling seem to have similar mark ups.
 
Who's to know without taking the mirror off, as the name appears to be on the base.

Thanks Brian.  Sorry if I wasn't clear - the mirror I already own is the same as the one this chap is advertising for over $400 so I was thinking I should sell that to buy a correct Mach 1.

When we rebuilt our Fanalone in 1997 Omicron supplied a wing mirror said to be the correct one. It's the same as the one on the orange Fanalone posted by Jonathan in the Fulvia colour thread.  http://fulviacam.phanfare.com/2862194_3126384#imageID=49976369 It is stamped Vitaloni  e3  30009.

That's the same as I have for my car as well, never researched it but looks to be correct.

Jonathan,
No you were clear but it's just that I could think of better ways to spend the 400 euro than on a mirror!
