What do the side mirrors looks like for 1968 Chevy C10 Custom shortbed fleetside?

Could somebobdy post some pics of what the factory side mirror or mirrors look like for a 1968 Chevy C10 Custom shortbed fleetside truck?

There were a few. What is on the SPID? If nothing is called out, it will have "standard" mirrors, but I don't know what they would look like.

I'm pretty sure the "standard" mirror was the round one with triangular base that was painted. Like the top pic.

Looks like PJ and I posted within a second of each other. His answer is better, but I don't have or know where to find a brochure. Anyone know a source?

Based on a Google search, the following website appears to have the sales brochures available for download.

https://xr793.com

Here's the 1968 sales brochure:

My SPID doesnt list anything about mirrors so I guess it should have the "standard" mirrors.

It looks like the back side of the standard mirror is smooth and chrome for 1968 and doesnt have any type of ribbing on it while the bracket or brace is painted body color.


This is good information.
