Mirror suggestions
I am looking to the not too distant future and deciding on final touches like interior door handles and such and it has come up that I haven't decided on mirrors.
My 66 will be a sort of hot rod flat bed. Purple with a tan interior. What have you guys used on your trucks? Would like to see pics and know where you got them. Thanks, Steven

Re: Mirror suggestions
My truck had the smaller west coast style mirrors on it so I just used the top arm of them and bolted new repop miror heads to them. They kinda' look like peep mirrors so I call them "farm peeps" or "cheeps".

Re: Mirror suggestions
Gorgeous truck jocko!
I really dig the "cheeps". Just a bit too industrial for my build but they just might inspire me to fab up something similar. Thanks guys! Keep the suggestion coming. Steven

Re: Mirror suggestions
Thanks for the link!
I think I will go with the straight arm peeps. At only $14.95, the price is right too. Steven
