although most purests typically want the correct mirror style on their truck, the folks that bought these trucks new didn't always follow that back then.. some of these trucks came with the small automotive or 'sport' style mirrors and were replaced at the dealer or shortly after.. depending what time of year truck was sold, which mirrors were in the parts dept. inventory, and when the customer or dealer installed them, either style may be found on other model year trucks.. and now of course 50 years later, anything goes

personally, I like these on this 71 so I was lucky they were already on there
