Location and Style of exterior mirrors

[RICH MUISE]

Somebody got an awersome car. I'm seeing a few minor diferences in the first pic with the three cars, and the last pic alone...I'm assumming they are not the same car??
Do you build these yourself? On the one you sold...I'm curious what those tailight lenses are.
I really like the tube grille though...seems much more substantial with the 5 larger bars than the typical 8-11 bar grilles I've seen. Did you make it, or have it made, and is it chrome or stainless?

Outside mirrors were optional, mostly dealer installed w/different price ranges!
There were dealer kits for heaters (2), a/c (2) radios (3) and much other stuff.
The spotlights w/mirrors were made by Unity (still in business) and sold thru Ford.
Regards,
Ron.

Talked with them at the Good Guys in Nashville, they are really good folks to work with, used several of Butches kits over the years.  Butch is still involved so I expect that things are pretty much on top as they were in the past.  My buddy was looking for a grill for his 57 and they stated they were going to start engineering the tube grill this past summer....and...they quoted him 300 - 400 for thye thing.
