Sorry....the deal is on hold due to the shipping cost. I'm hesitant to sell separate from the doors as they match the holes on perfect rust FREE doors. There may still be hope as we are searching for a cheaper method. Anybody traveling from the west coast to the Texas area?????????

Still loooooooooking for a very nice set that I can install on the Circuit Rider...Hopefully the Circuit Rider's restoration will be done in 2-3 months! I will pay $1,000,000 for a nice set...well maybe not $1,000,000 But with the right set of mirrors my truck will look like a $1,000,000.

**70cst** · 02-04-2009, 09:25 AM

Still in need.

**70cst** · 02-06-2009, 11:11 AM

Bump.

**ScottH** · 02-06-2009, 11:28 AM

I know you are looking for GM mirrors, but I have a set of aftermarket that were bought in the 70's and still in their boxes. If interested I can get u some pics.

Longhorn321 · 02-06-2009, 11:41 AM

I have a set but I think they are rougher than what you are looking for. I'll look when I get home.

I will continue to search the universe until I find a very nice set of mirrors.

Longhorn321 · 02-09-2009, 03:39 PM

I checked and just as I suspected, they are not that nice. There is pitting on the chrome part that makes the 90 degree bend...I call it the elbow and there is a little scratching on the glass.

Ok...thanks for looking. I never realized these mirrors would be so challenging to find. The hunt continues.

Longhorn321 · 02-10-2009, 12:24 AM

I bought these at a swap meet thinking they were the same as mine but when I got back to where my truck was I saw that the "elbow" was longer on my truck. These would probably still work and I may still use them. I think they will clean up some and I may try to get the "elbows" chromed. The stainless part looks great. I may be able to polish the glass up some too.

**70cst** · 02-14-2009, 12:07 AM

Bump.

**70cst** · 02-20-2009, 08:36 AM

My search continues...somehwere in Chevy land are a pair of mirrors that are calling the Circuit Rider.

What is the length of the lower brace's ? I have a set that I took off a70 cst 10 years ago they are nice factory mirrors. but the lower arms are only 7 1/2" long The ones in the picture you show look longer then that. Ken .

rlm316 · 02-23-2009, 12:16 PM

Do the mirrors you are looking for have a horizontal upper mounting bar and the lower with two verticle legs? If this is what you are after, I have a near perfect set that were in my loft. I am having trouble with my dig. camera so I can't load pics now. If you are interested I will look for a new way to get you some pics.

The mirrors on my truck above are what I am looking for. The 69-70 mirrors were the same style but the 71-72 were a little differrent. I am looking for the 69-70 type mirrors.
Thanks

rlm316 · 02-23-2009, 03:04 PM

These came off of a '70 C20. The top arm is a triangle with the base mounting on the door. Do the ones on your truck a single mounting bolt at the top? The bottom mounts are the same on the ones that I have. I will try and get a new camera so I can send you the pics.

rlm316 ...if these came off a 70 C20 they should be the same as a 70 C10...Price? I am very interested.
Thanks.

This is what my mirrors look like. I want to get you some pics before we talk price. I want to make sure they are what you are looking for.

rlm316 · 02-24-2009, 11:45 AM

These are not my pics. Just found them to show you the type only.

Im not sure if those would work if they looked like that, they look backwards, and the mounting on the back of the mirror looks wrong...but without seeing your actual mirrors its hard to tell

rlm316...those do not look like factory GM Mirrors. I would guess if you have factory mirrors stored...they will not look like the pic that you posted. JMHO. If you get a chance email me pics. You can pm me and I will provide my email address. Thanks

These are the mirrors that came off of a '70 C20 camper special. I think these are factory. Maybe just for the camper special. Nice SS mirror, not very much vibration while moving. Let me know what you think.
