Prior to the introduction of the sport mirrors in 1971, Blazers and Jimmys came standard with the 5x7 rectangular mirror and a painted arm. This differs from the trucks that had the round mirrors. Based on some comments throughout this forum, it seems that in some instances, 1969 blazers came with the round mirrors from the factory. What i am unsure about, is what finishes the 5x7 mirrors came in, and what the standard finish was for each trim...
It is safe to assume that the base blazer came standard with the white 5x7 rectangular mirror? Looking at this marketing photo from 1970, I would assume that the custom trim can standard with the white mirror as well. Was non-white also an option?
Based on this CST marketing photo from 1969, It appears as though the base or at least optional finish was not white. The finish also does not appear to be chrome and looks more like an anodized/brushed finish. This would contradict the chrome 5x7 mirrors available in reproduction. Can anyone comment on what finish the higher trim Blazers mirrors had in 69/70.
