Do these mirrors have a name?
Looking for a pair of these mirrors to throw on my '70. This style has always been my favorite. Do these have a certain name to them?

Re: Do these mirrors have a name?
They came on my 68, but were painted and they also had a rectangular head,

LMC calls the Round Door Mirrors
That's exactly what I put on my 70...you can actually see out the right side with them.

I think they are what came standard on the 67-68 c10's. The passenger side mount is a little longer than the drivers side so you can see around the vent window post.

Those are chrome reproductions of the standard '67 - '70 style mirrors. They can have round or rectangular heads.

Actually, the picture in the original post is a chrome reproduction of the 60-66 side mirrors. If you look at the base its a slightly different shape with different hole placement. It wouldn't mount up directly to a 67-70.

Re: Do these mirrors have a name?
Yeas, these are the standard mirror for 67-70. They were all painted, but aftermarket sells chrome and stainless. The ones shown are pre-67 repros. This is what came on trucks going way back, but to fit each body style. They do the trick while not jumping out at you, and while keeping with tradition. I always called them "stick mirrors", because other truck mirrors have more than one support
