Side Mirrors - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

crawdad · 09-29-2004, 01:51 PM

I see in some of the photos of the 1972 model chevy trucks a larger, 3 point attchment chrome mirrors. I kinda like these and was wondering if this mirror was an option on the trucks? Does anyone know where I might find a set of them? Thanks

I think your talking about are "westcoast" mirrors. mainly used on longbeds?

Robert1970C20rstbukt · 09-29-2004, 07:49 PM

He's talking about the camper style mirrors. They use a tripod mount with the rectangle-shaped mirror head. You can get 'em in either white or stainless steel.

crawdad · 09-29-2004, 08:54 PM

That's the ones Robert. Anybody know where I might pick up a pair of them?

That is the same mirrors I am going to put on my truck,the only thing to use IMO.

Stepside,why is the radio antennea on the left side? Is that the stock location on a GMC?

67ChevyC10Stepside · 09-30-2004, 12:17 AM

hmm.....now that you say that i didnt notice it....maybe...that's the whole in the cowl panel so i guess it's stock......

Brainchild · 09-30-2004, 09:09 AM

I just wondered if it was a GMC/Chevy thing or a year difference.I guess it rally doesn't make much difference,Just curious

crawdad · 09-30-2004, 01:20 PM

67chevy, are you saying you have a pair to sell, or were you just saying you had some on your truck? I've looked high and low and just can't seem to find those exact mirrors. Come on folks, if you know WHERE to get some, drop a name on me. Much obliged for your help.

67ChevyC10Stepside · 09-30-2004, 05:19 PM

i will sell these....

crawdad · 09-30-2004, 08:43 PM

Don't want to be too much of a bother, but could you give me a couple more closer up photos from a couple different angles? If you would like to give me a price, either here or private message, that would be good also. Thanks, I appreciate it.

I have a pair laying in the back of my blazer, they were there when I bought it.

I have a set of those for sale too. $60 shipped to your door.

Jeremy_5 · 10-01-2004, 02:49 AM

If I am not mistaken those aren't camper mirrors, camper mirrors are much bigger and swing out, like the ones on my truck.

Woody · 10-01-2004, 01:25 PM

There were about 3 style of these mirrors. I have a 69 with Jr. RV Mirrors that look like the one on the black GMC but the tripod is larger with the lower mounts about 1/2 down the door. Sorry no pic.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 10-01-2004, 01:37 PM

All of the antennas were on the R/H side of the trucks. Someone mounted that one there sometime after the truck was purchased. We also sell the new trypod style mirrors for $29.95 each (If you are looking for new) WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com
