Look at some of build threads for what you want. Keep in mind your tire size and rims as they have a major factor in the ending look. As far as mirrors functional as not for towing the chrome smaller stock mirrors look the best. Stay clear of the peeps unless you just want decorations.

Check out ECE (Early Classic Enterprises) for a drop kit as they vary depending on your needs.

Here's my '69 w/ a 4.5/6" drop kit and stock '69 mirrors:
