Pictures of various door mirrors
Is there a thread somewhere showing all the different door mirrors that were available? (really only need 1969 C30 1 ton versions)
I'm not able to locate the "flyswatter" long arm mirrors for my wrecker resto so it looks like I may have to pick something else. Will be putting new door skins on soon and need to have something picked out so I know where the holes will end up. Thanks,

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
Can someone tell me the name of this style mirror below? (picture found on forum, not my truck)
I found an exact pair of these today on a C50 and thought of maybe using them on my wrecker. Would this style be "correct" for a 69 Custom/30? If so, would they be body color or white? Thanks,

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
Look like a version of the "Jr. West Coast" mirrors.

 These look a bit large but might be fitting for a wrecker. Going to go back today and might get them. Thanks everyone,

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
Your correct Tim. The truck still had the sticker on the glove door and it had DG5 for the mirrors.
Here's the set I got today in really good condition. I suppose someone just added the smaller round mirrors on the bottom bolt, they come right off if needed. These things are huge! (but growing on me) I just realized I only paid $5 bucks for these. I think the cashier may have made a mistake in my favor.

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
I have a set of mirrors that i could part with. PM me if you are interested. Hope i am not breaking any rules by doing so. They are a little larger than the west coast junior mirrors but may look more proportioned on a tow truck. Stainless arms and mirror heads. Mirrors could use new glass though they have some pitting or whatever you call it.

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
I borrowed that picture and posted a WTB ad on the parts forum. Were you buying the ones off the C50 or just looking at them as a comparison?That is to say were the ones you saw for sale?

Re: Pictures of various door mirrors
I've seen several on older big trucks with screws with the heads inside and acorn nuts.
