VC1 brush guard mounting rods (August 19, 2012)| Picture of two types of original bruch guard rods that attach the brush guard to the frame. I am still figureing out which of the two is for a VC.

VC1 mirror mounting brackets. (March 22, 2012)| Pictures of the two rear mirror mounting brackets. Note that the side mirror bracket mirror mounting hole is tapped to accept the mirror stud. The mirror is a reproduction. The header mirror bracket is not tapped. The header mirror is a reproduction but as you see the mounting stud is not correct. I also included a picture of what remained of my header mirror which was the mounting stud. You can modify the reproduction mirror by cutting and tapping the mount for a screw and star washer |
