55-59 door mirrors
Still working on my 56 Cameo driver. I want to have the best rear vision possible when driving on interstate highways, so door mirrors are important. Somewhere I saw a Ford Bronco type molded plastic teardrop mirror mounted to a 55-59 chevy truck and it looked great. The door contour was very similar. I'm not having any luck finding what I need so am I asking for the wrong model or does anyone have another solution?

Re: 55-59 door mirrors
Man I would put the goose neck OEM style on it and replace the 4" round mirror with the bigger rectangle mirror. but that's just me.

Re: 55-59 door mirrors
I was at the Harley shop and saw some really nice mirrors that mount from the bottom or at an angle, bolted from the bottom. The gal said a lot of rodders are using them. It looked like the angled one might work on the curve of the door or cowl. I'm going to make up a template and take it back to see.
