1956 side view mirror mod

[Nev68]

Has anyone ever tried to modify or reshape a side view mirror arm on their Taskforce pick up?



Since I have changed my 1956 pickup to Rh drive now the LH side view mirror is totally wrong.
I though it would be easier (and maybe cheaper) to modify the mirror arm than move the entire mirror (i.e drill new holes and then have to repair and repaint)

Not sure if the arm is solid or hollow (like tubing)
It might reshape with some heat but just thought I would ask if anyone has tried.
