Default Side View Mirror

For a few weeks ive been using my mom's 87 buick park avenue for long distance driving and keeping my Stang in a safe proximity to home. Today I was takinga friend to the airport and when I got on the highway I hadent realised how inadequate my 65's mirror was. Not just the fact that the mirror kept falling down, but how small the thing is. So I look up a larger mirror (im thinking of putting 2 on now) and saw a one that they put on the shelbys. Its bigger but costs 80 bucks a piece. Are they other alternatives or a place with a better price?

The only reason im asking because I want to have a mirror that fits the style, plus its great to hear feedback from you all.

Default RE: Side View Mirror

i think that the stock mirrors are fine on cars of this size...it just took me a little bit to get used to parallel parking without a RH mirror

but if you want a mirror on the other side, I think NPD or Mustangs Unlimited sells one...as for bigger mirrors, i haven't seen one that would look good on your car

I hadent realised how inadequate my 65's mirror was.
I know what you mean...i drove my van for a week while my tranny was being rebuilt and felt the same thing...it's just a matter of getting used to it though
My '67 has been my daily driver for almost 3 years and i never even think about the mirrors inadequacy
