I have a question concerning the Side View Mirror Brackets on my 1954 Chevy Hydra-Matic truck. While the brackets are probably some kind of vintage aftermarket item, and not an original factory installed item or an option, I am still curious to see if anyone has seen anything like them before.

The reason I ask, is that the brackets are mounted on both the left and right sides the cowl and they appear to be something that may have come on the truck or at least from the dealer at the time of purchase. The driver’s side has the mirror and bottom brace and the passenger side only has the bracket. (The original mirror was round and I replaced it in the ‘70s with the rectangular mirror and blind spot mirror you see in the picture.)

It may always be a mystery, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks,
Phillip

P.S. It almost looks like the mirror brackets on some of the Big Bolts.
