1970 truck mirrors
Posted: Tue Feb 21, 2017 7:26 am
Just picked up a 70 slant 6 to go beside our 69 Adventurer, and I am researching some thoughts on putting it back to original (hence the other thread about seat covers).
This truck has a single mirror from another vehicle, but I seem to remember that there were only 3 mirror options for this truck, and I want to confirm that.
1) curved arm mirror with round mirror head painted white
2)curved arm mirror with round mirror head in chrome (Adventurer model)
3)west coast mirrors.
Is this correct? I am considering putting west coast mirrors on the truck as it is a bare bones farmer grade truck but want to be sure. Would the west coast mirrors have been chrome or painted white?
I have seen lots of trucks with the tripod style mirrors with the rectangular head but I always assumed these were a later aftermarket towing mirror.
Does anyone know if I am on the right track with all of this info?
