Picked her up
I was gifted a minty '55 from my wife's uncle who has passed recently and I'm in the process of towing it back home to MT...in the process, it appears my passenger mirror was either swiped or fell off in transport...where's the best place to source a replacement?
It's still hosting the original 92,xxx mile I6, it's been converted to 12v, has a BT stereo in the glove box and has dual exhaust. I need to make some adjustments on the doors so they open/close better but she starts up and drives great still! I'm excited to be a part of the community!

Towing back...only 950 miles left!

Welcome to the best Ford Truck Forum for your 55! Looking good!
Shame about the missing mirror. There are a couple of options out there:

Congratulations on getting a fine looking old truck. I really like the 55s with the nice looking grill and the classic looking windshield.
I hope you have many memorable moments with it in the cool country.
