I wonder how many A-body sport mirrors got parted out and converted into 70 E-body mirrors so some greedy sellers could make more money.



Worse than that, I see pair of these mirror being advertised at $200/pr to make E-body versions. Now after you buy the bases and mirrors you might have close to $280 in them. Then you have to get swap the cables. Sometimes the crimping breaks I hear. Now new PG ones are $500 a pair chrome and painted. Snobar has them for $375/pr painted!! If you have to rechrome the old ones that's got to cost $150++ additional.

Wow, Snobar's prices on pedestal and mirrors have gone down a bunch!!

But you can sort of spot the repros. The repro are not for everyone. But most people won't mind them.

I just hope people consider and realize the total cost and effort of coverting A body to E body mirrors when buying A-body cores.

Good luck with the mirrors on your Duster. I think they look great. It's gonna kill me to not put them on my FM3 70 Duster 340, but I want to keep that car faithfully original in appearence.



Was 70 the first year for A body Rallye mirrors or was it 71?? Optional all A-bodies?? All colors??
