Hey there Russell. My 59 has been fitted with O.E. style mirrors from Chevy/GMC full size pickup, 1973-1987 years. They mount amazingly well in terms of following the body curves vertically, look natural as can be, and offer great visual coverage. They are stainless bodied and VERY EASY TO FIND CHEAP. Hope this helps, maybe we share the same tastes. Grant.
That's funny, I just went back the other way to the small OEM style sideview mirror from a large mirror that came off an 80's truck. Isn't nearly as useful as the large mirror, but I don't drive the truck much and I like the original look much better. Too bad for me that my grandfather didn't save the original mirror after he installed the larger mirror.
Just looked at the ebay item. The mirrors that I removed were larger with a larger vertical dimension than horizontal.
