[DeTomaso] Mirror myth

[Tom Shinrock]

 OK....OK.....That will be my last attempt at humor :).   

I assumed it was touch up paint, but didn't know that a new car came with it back in the mid 70s.

That would likely be the touch up paint . . .

 Wonder how they got the paint on after it was unloaded from the boat?

>>>It turns out, it *is* a myth.   I have the original shipping document 
for my Pantera, which I picked up when I visited De Tomaso a few weeks ago.

It has a statement which says, (in both Italian and English), 

"The accessories (paint, license plate holder, fuses, warranty booklet,
tools, cigarette lighter, gearshift knob, wheel name plate, ashtray, and
rear vision mirrors) of the car are contained in trunk"

Actually, come to think of it, that may refer not to the side mirrors, but 
rather to the interior mirror?   Although it dies say mirrorS with an 'S'...
