Thanks All.

Mayo, you appear to have the larger, more common, true Chevy ones.

I have to think mine are after market, and were once quite nice.

Ill keep checking the FS fourm/listings.

Thanks again...

Yeah, I don't know if they are factory ones or if they are aftermarket. I bought them off here but then decided to go with the smaller kind from the 71-72s, so I am just going to try and sell the bigger set for what I paid for them.

The mirrors I bought for my 70's restoration from J C Whitney are the closest I could find that looked like the 1970 "camper mirrors".

They ARE butt-ugly, but at least I'll be able to see around a boat that's eight feet wide.

A 68 Wreck those are the one's I was thinking about.

A couple late comments to this thread if I may. My 72 Custom Camper has the same SPID RPO callout as MusicMan. The pick Jocko posted with the over the door frame mounts are the ones that mine came with (well, the holes are there anyways) the PO removed them and placed a JC Witney based generic on there and was nice enough to leave me the holes.... I am going to veer off that original part search myself and go with the deluxe sport mirror on my restoration. That is way too much mirror arm for me down my doors. I think you all have nailed it right on the head that there are WAAAAYYYYY too many variations available to sort out. I gave up a week ago after I spent several days looking and several aspirins from crossing my eyes.. LOL.

I got another? boy the op is gonna be really confused. the mirrors tim pic'ed and described as jr wc mirrors on the first page are listed in my 67 spid as jr rv mirrors. I'm guessing it must be just differnt terminology for a early 67

The trick with RPO codes is to remember the code defines the option in the GM system. The description seems to be highly variable between years, dealer data books, literature, parts books, SPIDs and especially assembly plants.
