Quite interesting. The mirror is about 1/4" thick at the top and 1/8" at the
bottom. It is held in place by the plastic frame and there are 6 rubber
bumpers behind it that hold it in securely. There is a thick piece of masking
tape across the back of the mirror to protect the silver finish on the back of
the mirror. The ooze is the minute amount of glue that holds that masking tape
on the back of the mirror! Now it is more glue than on tape, but by no means
ALOT of glue...just some seriously sticky tape. I was amazed that there was
enough to ooze like that year after year. I would bet that if you cut the
crustaceuous glue off every winter after a few summers of oozing, it would
stop...there just isn't that much in there to ooze!

I thought it sounded like Alain's car. He got a new shop and didn't want
to move his old never-started projects to it. With all the talk there
had been about this car on mercedesshop in the last year, I'm surprised
there weren't two people willing to bid $4k.
