That is one cool looking vehicle. Is it real? Sorry, don't know the history of your car.

Perhaps this place has them. http://www.spydersports.com/ Looks like it's worth a call.

Or maybe Beck has them for his Beck 550's.

Mike,

I don't think I've ever seen any of those mirrors ... but the optional hood-mounted tach housing on '68 GTOs and Firebirds looked mighty close to that, perhaps a tiny bit higher in profile, though! Perhaps a boneyard search ...

If GM put those mirrors on a current production vehicle, they wouldn't even be usable ... because of the frosted legalese warning: Objects are closer than they appear!

I have liked those mirrors for a while. Anyone know if they would fit a 911?

They are in the mail....fibersteel was nice enough to honor the web price of 100 bucks after he had quoted my 150 each on the phone....

I could lay them on the fenders of the 911 and see how they look and take a pic if you want....

That would be cool Mike. $100 sounds like a steal compared to the prices of some of the alternatives.
