Go here: Bullnose Forum/Marketplace/For Sale, Trade, or Free To A Good Home and then click New Topic. Name it something about the power/remote control mirrors and post away.
The pics will be the hardest part, as we've discussed.

In an attempt to assist a potential seller and a potential buyer...
In the Bullnose Enthusiasts Forum, on February 5, 2018, Forum member Alfie623 posted the following: Just throwing this out there in case someone has a set they want to send to a new good home. I’ve been looking for a few years and had one near miss where I actually found a set. So if you have a set and want to see them go to a good home please let me know. |

I’m interested in buying the set of mirrors if you have them. Please contact me at alfie623@verizon.net and we can discuss.
Jonathon, thanks for the heads up!

Wanted to say thanks for thinking of me! After some discussion, payment and shipping I received the full set of mirrors, wires and templates yesterday!!! I couldn't be happier. Now........who can help me find a CB radio?

Glad they went to someone who appreciates what they are.
Great transaction, very satisfied on my end! Curt |
To add some excitement to the whole deal, the UPS driver delivered the package to the wrong address last night. It’s not like he lost my Amazon package or new snowmobile gear, both also delivered yesterday; instead he lost the 35+ year old, ultra rare Bullnose power mirrors.
After some discussion and phone calls UPS found the package, picked it up and delivered to my house last night. I couldn’t be happier.

Now........who can help me find a CB radio? You are most likely thinking along the lines of a Ford CB radio system... the following is not that but is a period correct NOS aftermarket unit which looks like it will fit 1980-1984 trucks. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-1970s-1980s-In-Dash-23-Channel-CB-with-AM-FM-MPX-Stereo-Radio-dp/264917588214?epid=1373319023&hash=item3dae5198f6:g:QIIAAOSwmGNfm2B4 |

Now that thing is NEAT!
Missed the cb ask earlier but here's one I've had saved in marketplace for awhile (unknown if still available)- https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/190587475451756 I am 40min away so if someone wants it but the seller won't ship, we can figure something out. Note: appears to be missing the cradle and the antenna cable splitter (if getting picky )

I didn't know that an AM/FM/CB unit was ever made. Cool!

This is reportedly for a Crown Victoria... could it work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-1980-FORD-CROWN-VICTORIA-COUNTRY-SQUIRE-CB-RADIO-NETWORK-ASBY-E0AZ-18B812-B/391972446546?epid=19014091589&hash=item5b4360e152:g:X5QAAOSwZ11acSjl |

I'll defer that to those more familiar with cb/snr/cable lengths/etc as I don't know if it's simply a matter of "if the cables reach"
We need an idk/shrug emoticon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey Gary - that would do it.
I wonder though - would something like this get more mileage? Kind of a thinking/pondering one:

Scott - I'm going to have to refresh my understanding for how to add emoticons. And, we should pick one to take off to keep it simple. How 'bout:
Turns out that I can put the thinking face in pretty easily by going into HTML mode and pasting the code in:
🤔 But, as you see it is pretty small and no one else would know how to do it.
So, maybe tomorrow night while watching the election returns I can figure it out?

Sounds like a great plan to me Gary. Thanks!
I can't recall seeing the ninja so seems like a good swap to me.
