west coast mirrors

I want west coast mirrors for my 67 c10 but the only new ones i can find are K-Source and they have a lot of bad reviews. I checked ebay for used ones with no luck I cant afford $400 for mirrors. Next stop junk yards. Any ideas?

Re: west coast mirrors

For new ones, check semi truck parts stores.

Re: west coast mirrors

Check out the parts board. I just sold a pair last week at a swap meet. If you subscribe you can post a WTB to draw them to you. This isn't the parts board

Re: west coast mirrors

I found a stainless set of Jr's here locally from a C10/C20/C30 user group on Facebook. Only gave $40 bucks for them.

Re: west coast mirrors

They don't make these anymore, but I'm looking for them. they are called Detroit 90's made from the early 50's to the mid 70's. They are west coast Jr's with the smaller 5" x 7" mirror. I've seen then go for $50 all the way to $250, depends on cond., and right place, right time. just thought I'd show them to ya. They were a dealer option to my knowlege

My comment was for those so eager to sell they forgot how things work around here. Nothing in your posts was wrong. Keep an eye on the parts board and they'll pop up. I had been hanging onto mine for years for the right truck, but staying with the two I have that those wouldn't be right for.

Re: west coast mirrors

I really want an old set. My truck has a lot of rust and "character" so I'm trying to maintain that

Thank you. I just got my truck in December and just joined the group so I didn't want to do the wrong thing for lack of better words I guess.

Re: west coast mirrors

buckshot478 ...

Once a member you can post a Want To Buy and likely get your choice of mirrors - not only mirrors but other parts as the needs arise.

Best of luck.
