As I have an M&M character hanging from my rear view mirror, I don't mind hanging dice either. Over the 23 years that I have had the Plymouth, I even have had my oldest son's first pair of shoes hanging from my mirror

I also have to say I can take them or leave them,.I will go a bit further and state that the rice burners and such are not the place to have them hanging..just don't seem "period correct" most of these punk kids should still have their binky tie to the mirror..

I know Don..the age of originality is gone, the custom continues in those recreating a nostalgic time they remember...lots of things over the ages have been associated with the automoile and the squeeze at the time..the garter for one was also an favorite mirror ornament..the church-key was an item all cars had..if not for opening the oil car of the day, to quech one thirst with a cool one...I have as set of dice in my 54 that are color coded to match the interior trim. Will trade for a shrunken head...!!

Don't like 'em and never have. I don't like anything hanging from the mirror as I feel it distracts from driving and can interfere with your vision.

That is one of the main reasons I do not like fuzzy dice. They have lost there meaning (if they ever had one)

..Perhaps something like this hangin' off the rear bumper of a car is more to your liking in that there is a message implied ? ;)

this is equivlent of an X as a signature

..I take it you've seen them in Georgia as well :D

..My humble apology,Don.After some thought,I edited my post.While the meaning of hanging fuzzy dice may be lost,I guess some other methods of personalizing vehicles

as Tim pointed out can be offensive :)

Period correct for the 50`s cars---LuLu has one and my old 57 Buick---it had the garter belt too--and most of the 50`s cars that I have had. No on my Vette,Ambulance and a hearse that I had----didn`t seem right on these:eek:

Probably an inherited condition as my parents even objected to the perhaps local tradition of hanging the tassels from the HS graduation cap from the rear view mirror.

Hanging the High School graduation cap tassel from the mirror was not local to California. My friends and I all had ours hanging from the rear view mirrors in Massachusetts.

I don't have fuzzy dice in my car currently, but this thread makes me think I need some. In the past I have had some, but I hung them on one of the dash knobs, not the mirror. The windshield seemed small enough without having something blocking my view.

Tod;

Not local! In my HS days in Ohio and Indiana tassels were the in thing to do. But I never liked the tassels so I guess I was "out" way back then. The other thing back then to do was to place a colledge decal in the rear window. I did do that for Ball State University where my older sister attended when I was in High School.
