Mirror question.
Just wondering if any of you had seen these before? Loosen the nut to slide mirror in or out. Did GM make them, or are they home made?

Re: Mirror question.
I don't know about the mirror arms but is that your "sitting rock" ?

Re: Mirror question.
Never seen any like that before but it is a nice idea.
Sleek tight fitting mirrors when you don't need them for trailers or loads with a quick adjustment to make them extend for better visibility.

Re: Mirror question.
That was pretty common. Not sure what I've seen them on before but it looks like 1950's.

Re: Mirror question.
I was hoping they were flyswatter mirrors like on the truck above. Can't find a pair for my wrecker resto to save my life.
Still, those ones at the top are neat! I've never seen those before. If they aren't originals, GM should have made them!

Re: Mirror question.
Do ya think they vibrate when going down the road? Tough to see anything with the short ones, let alone ones like that.

Re: Mirror question.
I've seen those on 60-66 trucks before, not sure if they are factory though. Joseph
