Re: Who's running West Coast style mirrors? Pics please

Now I feel better about the giant mirrors on my panel truck. Passenger side has the shaft of a "regular" mirror. I tried taking the bolts out but they just spun. Guess I need to tear down the door and see what's going on on the backside.

I've got a pair on my truck I'd consider getting rid of if you'd want them.

Mine are identical to yours, Metalaroundstone. And in similar condition.

I've always wondered if these are original equipment or not.

Re: Who's running West Coast style mirrors? Pics please

I have the small mirrors but I’m thinking of going with the tall ones. Didn’t know they were called West Coast mirrors.

Where a good place to pick these up now?

I'd like to know as well. I usually just peruse E-Bay for old parts but would love to find an after market supplier for new items available.

I cannot find these. Ordered some from Raneys Chrome back in September and they still can’t tell me if they will ever ship.

Re: Who's running West Coast style mirrors? Pics please

Man I never thought these old big mirrors would ever be desirable? I cannot tell you how many I’ve thrown away over the years. That used to be the first thing we ripped off and trashed when we drug a new project truck in.

Here’s a truck I’m picking up tomorrow that’s mostly unmolested. It belonged to a friend of mine that’s had it for over 40 years. It’s still got both original West Coast Jr. on it. I might consider getting rid of them as I’m not a fan.
