I saw the older 2 1/2 's with them.
I have a take off set minus the mirrors for sale.
The mirrors are nice but you can see more with the west coast with 8" bullseye mirrors.

Yes....those were the first attempt at a better mirror than the 5 inch round on a single stick. Meaning the mirror would just vibrate so bad that you couldn't see out it. So the first attempt was to go with those like you have. Then the west coast styles came into play.

It started with a small mirror on a single piece rod as nattieleather stated. Then came yours (of which I have a very nice pair of). Then came the elephant ear mirrors which had a heavy steel attachment to the windshield hinge then the 2 variations of west coast mirrors came into play.

I have two trucks with those mirrors. From what I understand, there were three types: these, another similar type but with only one arm and the mirror head is larger, and the West Coast style.
