first gen side mirrors
 

Hey guys,

Looking for ideas on side mirrors for a first gen. I saw one time on the board someone had C-5 mirrors which looked good but what other ideas do you have? Any pics of what you have?

Thanks, Kurt

IMO, C5 mirrors are way too big and round for a ponycar and when using parts from newer cars, consider when that car was designed and that era is when that part will be rooted. The C5 for instance was deigned around 94 and the last generation Camaro that a lot of people pirate parts from was deigned around 1989-1990. Not the automotive styling high point which is food for thought when looking over that "good deal" on some parts to add to your car that was designed during a high point in automotive styling.

I test-fitted some 70-73 mirrors on my 69. Basically a bolt on and looked very good in my opinion.

Did they look anything like these? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Those would look good on a first gen! :thumbsup:

Hey I just bought them on E-bay tonite about an hour ago. Same ad and everything!

I was looking at Charlies car "the mule" and decided that looked real nice.

Thanks guy's,

Kurt

If you happen to install, or at least test fit them soon let me know how they fit.

Thanks,
Rod

very similar.

No problem, I'll let you know.

I like the looks of the LeSabre mirrors... these.

Havent mounted them yet. Looks like some minor trimming.
