After Market Mirrors

Has anyone seen these mirrors before? Does anyone know who makes them or where they can be bought?

They look similar to the Agent Forty Seven mirrors but attached to the door instead of infront of the window.

Where did you find these photos? The mirrors look like OEM 69-70 Mustang/Torino racing mirrors. Originals were remotely controlled with mechanical cables. I'm interested in where this car got the blank covers to replace the factory mirrors.

TIA

I would argue that those aren't retro, but are in fact the originals, possibly milled along the bottom of the mount for proper fit. Look how they attach using exposed screws - nobody does that anymore, unless you look at cars like my 73, which has them that way from the factory.

They are either originals or reproductions of originals and for me it looks like a viable replacement for the overly expensive Agent 47 models. There are several vendors selling these for under $110 each. I would have to modify a set to accept the electric motors out of my factory mirrors. I'd like to know who makes the window insert that was used with this conversion. If jeffgall can inform us as to where he found these photos, maybe there is a way to contact the owner of this vehicle.

Turns out that the owner of the Legend Lime Mustang lives about 35 miles from me. I had to join the Legend Lime Registry to post a message to him, I'm probably the only Torch Red in the LLR. It may be tomorrow before I get a reply.
