My guess would be 67 - 68, but I'm not positive. :bowtie:

60-68, maybe earlier. Check to see if the holes are the same as a later model, I know for sure the 60-66 has a slightly different bolt pattern, not sure about 67-68.

Those are from a 67-68. I bought some after market ones for my truck. I looked all over the place around where I live and could not find any of those OEM mirrors. Good find.

I think they are for 70 and older. Wanna sell them?

Longhorn Man 05-28-2002 02:06 PM

Early '70, and older. My first Longhorn had them on and they were original.

RodC 05-28-2002 02:20 PM

Great find, I have been looking at getting a pair of those but chromed. Could you please measure the mounting plates of those.

I want to replace the square jobs on my 71 and I want to make sure the plates will cover up the old screw holes before I buy them.

Also the distance between the two screw holes that are farthest apart would be great.

Baradium 05-28-2002 02:32 PM

Back home I have a set of chrome arms of that style, but they have the square heads. They are for the 60-6? mounting pattern, but would work if you don't mind drilling some holes. I know they definately don't work after the '70 change.

I have the same mount patern on my 70chev. and they are factory doors. I replaced them with chrome ones that I found (cant rember who from I will go find out) they were realy realy nice and not very expensive!!!! and I as a rule don't like aftermarket parts.:bowtie:

Those look like the ones on my 68. I hated the discs, but love the colored arms. You can buy a larger mirror to go in place of the discs while keeping the stock arms. :)

(Pay no attention to the rust in the photo! It's not there. Nothing to see there! :bowtie: )

I might swap them onto my 71 too,I haven't made up my mind though.
Here are 2 pic's of the mounting plate of the mirror.
this one's 3"5/8ths

My 69 has those mirrors but I haven't seen them on 70 trucks so my guess is 67-69. But that is just a guess.

68SWB4x4 05-28-2002 08:30 PM

my 70 had them stock

barn9 05-28-2002 08:31 PM

RodC, these are available in chrome, but I don't recall where I saw them. Paul or Wes might have them. I saw them when looking for mirrors on the web at a couple different places, so I know they're out there. Good luck! :bowtie:

dross 05-28-2002 08:50 PM

Our 70 has those mirrors on it. Can't tell you if it's supose to or not.

Longhorn Man 05-28-2002 09:28 PM

My old 70 CST/20 Longhorn had them stock.

BADA$$69 05-28-2002 09:49 PM

My 69 had them stock also. I had to drill the screws out of them to get'em off. I did't think they were worth anything and threw them away.

BLACK AND BLUE 67-72 05-28-2002 09:51 PM

They started in 1960 and went to 1970, You could get them in Chrome or black , Round or Rectangular heads!! :D

RodC 05-28-2002 09:59 PM

Thanks for the measurements. Unfortunatly they mount below the top lip on the door. The small sport mirrors like I have mount in the small space above the bend in the door, between it and the mirror.

Thanks guys.......
