I found a set in a local junk yard and a second set on EBay. Actually, they're on EBay all of the time. When you're looking it may be helpful to know that Ford called them Western Long Arm mirrors. Also, many people refer to them as Junior West Coast mirrors.
I wanted regular size ones. I ordered in new ones from more than one company and none were right. I search ebay for months and nothing. I went to the "Ford" bone yard for something else and right up front sat a U haul truck with them on. i walked past this truck 20 times and never noticed them. I asked how much and the guy said he just had to have $20.00. I would have paid $100.00.
Point being, I think both juniors and reg,s are hard to find.
i might be wrong but a buddy tells me they were also on step vans and when you call around mention this. The heads might not be the correct ones but maybe the pipes are.
well i guess i just keep looking at my local bone yards. i have looked specifically for these and there arent any around. but i will keep looking. thanks for the correct terminology
are the ones on my crew considered "west coast" mirrors? I have never really understood this term as it seems vague to me. From what I can tell it refers to anything remotely looking like mine???
thanks for the links everyone. i have just spent about 2 hrs following a dead trail on searches. guess i will just have to keep my eyes open in the parts yards.
as per the video, they are Jr west coast mirrors (stainless) I like those the best.
regular west coast mirrors are full height mirrors like a F-600. I like those too, but they are seldom stainless, all mine are painted.
keep looking, they are out there, I've had a couple sets over the years.
the ones i am looking for were stock on the 72 camper special. they are original ford parts. they are hard to find but i will find a pair somewhere just wish i could find an oem part number
