So My street car has been sitting for 9 months. It has a blown motor and a blown tranny.

Unfortunately its in a rickety shed and a wind storm blew out one of the roof supports and smashed the fender in.

so this weekend I rolled it out and hosed the dust off.
hopefully in the next few weeks I'll start the body/motor/and tranny work. Thanks to SLITS I have a tranny to build off of, and I picked up a used engine with supposedly good compression...

But let me get to the point of the post.
when I rolled it out this weekend, I found that the wind damage had also broken both of the mirrors on the car.

I had the "turbo" style mirrors that I had put on it around 1985. I think the company used to make toronados, baby turbos and full sized turbos.

because the mounting holes are already there.
does anyone know if they still sell this type of mirror?

I checked my tweeks catalogue without any luck
is there a good online VW store?
I'll look on pelican later today too.

thanks all!
