Both my '73 and '71 have crummy rubber adjustable side mirrors. what did the originals look like. I have seen pictures with round and rectangle and although both of my cars have (2) mirrors, I think the originals only had (1)

While on the subject of mirrors...
My passenger side is like a magnifying glass. It is almost unusable. Most mirrors say "objects may be closer..." mine should say ..."Objects appear closer...". Are there two styles of mirror? |

Are there two styles of mirror? There's something about the magnification that occurs when you use a regular mirror on the passenger side, always seems to look enlarged, I agree. I didn't know that true passenger mirror were available with different glass.. According to Brad Mayeur, you could ask the dealer back in the day to put a passenger mirror on when the cars were new. When I refreshed my two original paint cars, I elected to leave them alone without adding the passenger mirror. I love the visibility compared to modern cars and don't seem to miss them. mepstein's picture of all the mirrors made me smile! Paul |
