NC West Coast Mirrors - Stainless - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jeffg1010 · 03-12-2013, 09:37 PM

I have a set of original West Coast mirrors that I don't need. I just need to get them out of the way before I break them. (not to mention I need the cash for my Blazer project) These are the West Coast mirrors that have mounts on the top and bottom. Not the tripod.

These are stainless. It seems like most that I've seen on here have been painted white.

And they came off of a all original paint (ochre and white) C10 Custom. So, they have never been painted around. No overspray that I can see.

They are dirty, as you will see in the photos, but overall they are in GREAT shape. The bolts have surface rust, but all of the threads are still good. In fact, I removed them with a ratchet and a flat screwdriver (i was surprised, because rarely does something come off without one bolt seizing up. AND, all of the bolts are there. But that kind of stuff is easily replacable or paintable if you want. The concave mirrors are in pretty rough shape (reflective material delaminated inside) and will likely need to be removed, but I didn't want to mess with them too much.

The stainless looks like it will polish up nicely and I believe you will be very pleased. They were manufactured by Delbar Products Inc. in Perkasie, PA.

$100 plus shipping. First "I'll take them" gets them.

I'll take them.

I will get you a shipping quote tomorrow. I believe if I disassemble them I can "flatten" them out a little to avoid the large package surcharge. Would that be ok? Can you send me the postal code in a PM? Thanks Jeff

Jeff,are you positive the truck never had paint work? Were there still holes from where the original mirrors were?

Nice WC Jr mirrors but I'm with Tim ochre and no holes don't seem to add up. Are they on the SPID? Remeber the below eye line tripods s were refered to as jrs on some later trucks.

Yeah, not sure if they were on the spid but they were the only mirrors that were ever on the truck. If it didn't come with them from the factory then the dealer must've installed them.

I cleaned one up a little this morning

They are nice and look very much like the original GMs. GM stopped using these in '68 when they came out with the low-mount/below eyeline mirrors in '69. You didn't mention what year this truck was,but with original paint it would be no older than a '71.
