Factory 1967 windshield rear mirror mount?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

19553100 · 08-06-2010, 08:20 PM

I'm thinkin' that this rear view mirror mount is not original to
my '67 CST Shortbed?

The black screws are a big clue.

**68 Stepside** · 08-06-2010, 08:43 PM

It might possibly be stock. I think the 67's had a unique mounting arm.

geezer#99 · 08-06-2010, 08:45 PM

I had one just like that in my 67 GMC. I think the real early produced trucks got them. Carry over from 66. My GMC was number 99 built. How early was yours built.

nds1968 · 08-06-2010, 08:56 PM

My 67 C10 has the same as yours.

Rob H. · 08-06-2010, 08:58 PM

The one in my 67 Custom is the same also.

19553100 · 08-06-2010, 09:54 PM

Kool! Thanks for the quick responses!

Wow, I thought you guys were joking.... not a lot of thought/design in that thing

Slick67 · 08-06-2010, 10:42 PM

I polished mine and it looks truly custom! They may not have put much thought into em but it is cool. They weigh about 5 pounds without the mirror attached!!!

And you are correct, they were black originally.

Shyguy · 08-06-2010, 10:45 PM

The one in the cab of my '67 C-20 looks just like that.

67chevy1series · 08-06-2010, 11:06 PM

my 67 has the samething to they are impossible to find repoed or good originals

**John Fabris** · 08-06-2010, 11:45 PM

Same one as in my 67s, however, they look killer chromed and in a Custom or CST trimed interior.

Yes that is stock and I need one. Any one have one laying around?

joes50pu · 08-07-2010, 11:54 AM

That's the same one that's in my 67.

Thanks.

Longhorn Man · 08-07-2010, 04:21 PM

is it listed on the spid? it was an option untill 70

Slick67 · 08-27-2010, 06:19 PM

Did they all come in black? I polished mine to chrome and the black was a booger to get off of it.

Yes, all were black with a texture, just like the glove box face.

C/10 King · 08-27-2010, 07:24 PM

John, do you still need one?

John @ BROTHERS · 08-28-2010, 12:01 PM

Rene, I now have two. Bought one off of "Sharpie1972" and another off of Gary K.
Thanks,
John

johnnytuff · 08-28-2010, 12:58 PM

My 67 has a 3 point mount at the roof with a soft rubber cover. Was this also an option? It looks factory

ChevLoRay · 08-28-2010, 01:50 PM

The rubber covered item is what I have on my '69, so I'm thinking maybe 68-71 on those. The black one in the OP's '67 reminds me of the one that was in my '65's. Could be mistaken...

10pointgmc · 08-28-2010, 06:42 PM

read this last night and just had to polish mine up to chrome today. turned out really nice i like way better than stock.

Good call! Glad you like it!

Tillik · 06-14-2013, 11:27 PM

Sorry for rolling an old post but damn, I never knew this about the 67 Rearview Mirrors and this is cool

Anyone know if you can buy these aftermarket? Anyone know the dimensions? Doesn't look terribly hard to make.
