Montanaboy,
Welcome to the forum. Though I live in Utah for a good part of the year, I also spend time in the Blackfoot Valley - not too far from Missoula.
I'm a little confused as to what mirror parts you need. I may have them so if you try and describe what you're looking for more thoroughly I'll check.
For non-Montana residents:
The state is a dump. There's nothing to do, the scenery's terrible, the people are rude, the hunting and fishing are abysmal. In short - it's a horrible place to live, or even visit.

I'm already a believer of this site! it's rad. So I'm going to attempt this image scene....harkening back to days of old image sharing, ha! Anyways, here's a couple I just took.
Here's the fomoco mirror. And then the minimal damage on the other side where I'll be attempting to fix and then install new mirror.
Let me know what you folks think!!! I love it. Of course there's a lot of work ahead of me, but I'm looking forward to bringing her back to life!

Nice truck!
Pretty minimal damage to the door. I'm guessing when the nutserts pulled out of the sheet metal you lost the small black plastic spacer that goes underneath the bracket. I don't have an extra one of those. Was there any damage to the arms or mirror head?

I don't even have any of those parts, or mirror. Apparently a deer flew out(as they tend to do up here), and got tangled into the actual arms, and trashed the whole thing. So I'm just going to eventually look around for a whole new setup and go from there.

By the way, the Blackfoot is one of my favorite rivers of all times. I float and fish it all the time! Family River.

Nice rig, you weren't kidding when you said "rust-free", looks like it's wearing the original paint too.
