Can someone id this mirror?

Hello all, I'm a "new" owner of a 62 stepside longbed. I've been lurking here for a while trying to get my footing, but came across this mirror a few days back and am in need of some help figuring out how/where to get one.

If anyone can kick me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!

might not be much help, but I've heard those referred to as "west coast" mirrors... Probably just a nickname.

There are West Coast and West Coast Juniors- which are smaller and looks to be what you have.

Thank you both for the input, sadly that's not my pickup but one I ran into in a parking lot & took a liking to the mirrors. Mine has more "modern" style mirrors that don't really fit the flow of the truck & I want to replace them.

Some don't like them, but personally I do.
Mine are dissasembled at the moment.
I had picked up a set of full size NOS International Harvester ones off of Ebay awhile back too. So I am assuming that Trucklite maybe was a supplier to multiple manufacterers??

They look aftermarket with all the adjustments on them. I like the look myself and had something like that on my 65.

Jocko lol no I didn't run into it, though that would be an epic impact with all the detroit steel.

I too like the look of the mirrors though from the links and pics I think when I get mine I will mount them closer to the windows similar to my original pic so long as I have good visibility with them.
