We haven't confirmed it yet but, I'll have an answer early this week and post it on the FordBarn.

We have made arrangements for the hotel for the 2016 Florida "Barner's Bash". The discount room rate is $79.95 per night. When you call to book a room, make sure you mention the Cigar City Flatheads to get the discount. See you in March.

Its a warm day here in Maine 45 degs. I woke up the flathead today and runs good few more thing to do need wipers and horn and then maybe try the 1500 mile trip to fl. Any ideas on good mirrors to see both sides good. I was wondering about 53 car ones.

George, that's excellent. Lookin' forward to seeing you. In the photo it looks like you've got a peep mirror on the passenger side. I've got a '47 Convertible and the cowl mounted mirrors are worthless on the passenger side. If you don't want to permanently mount mirrors, the peeps are most likely the best way to go...

Vic I have both kinds on there now and the pass side is useless. I tried them up and down with no luck. The peeps maybe try to move them.

Room booked and ready. Wish it was this weekend.

George, Hope to see you in Florida, coupe looks real good. I would plan at least three days and don't be intimidated by all the people running 80mph. Have a safe trip, Chuck S.

Hello George. I purchased a small convex mirror that you stick-on to the passenger side peep mirror for my 46 Coupe-works great. Steve
