Just like the West Coast mirrors that came on my 68 CS. Except mine were chrome as those may be with paint on them. Just took mine off and put these on. Gave me more room in carport and all I pull is a utility trailer. :D
Original owner's niece, that sold me the truck after he passed, said they were on the 68 when he bought it off the lot new. She was with him. She is a Ca Hwy Patrol Officer and as all piece officers and military. We would never tell a tale. :thup:
Course I do know that my A/C is a dealer add on.

These rigs were usually shipped without mirrors for easier transport. Then the dealer installed them prior to putting them on the lot.

Yes, but I would think dealer add on is diff than installed at dealer. :thup:

These mirrors are NOS I bought on Ebay a while back. That is the stock white color. I kept the originals lots of paint missing and one needs the glass replaced. What was nice the NOS ones where complete with all the hardware.
