Is that mirror like the original on 72's? Was there chrome one's also? Iv'e seen mostly black. Thanks!

I think they put the mirror on the windshield on 72 trucks rather than fastened above the windshield like my 71 has.

Thanks, but I know 72's have the mirror glued to the winshield. What I want to know is, if that reproduction mirror from the link above, is the same as the gm originals?

Hey Luis, A lot of the 72 mirrors were black but the black repo like LMC carries is not even close. The chrome ones look correct but wrong color.

The shape looks right. My mirror is black, not chrome. Here are a couple of pics of the mirror from my 72
