1972 C10 Mirrors or Van Mirrors G Series.

I have the last three sets of short arm mirrors that I will be selling. This is not a FS thread but I want to verify these mirrors as they are very close in looks.
Van or C10

Thanks

Here are pics of 1972 truck mirrors. Yours don't look like they use acorn nuts.

Agreed - the 1st two don’t look like it - I will take a look at the third set closer when I get home

Thanks

Re: 1972 C10 Mirrors or Van Mirrors G Series.

The O.P. pictures look like Van mirrors, for sure the mirror on the right.
I bought a van as a donor vehicle and hoped to use the mirrors. The top brace has a weird angled twist where it bolts to the door.
A truck mirror that brace has both ends flattened and are on the same plane ( like the picture lower down in another post.
No way I could get that brace to work on my truck door.
I bought a piece of 1/8" x 1" aluminum bar to use for the top brace, it won't be perfect, but there's lots of imperfections on my truck and I want mirrors I can actually see things behind me with.
