The driver's (Left side) out-side mirror was standard.
The passenger's side (right ride) out-side mirror was optional/accessory. The inside rear-view mirror was optional/accessory (standard mirror and non-glare mirror).
(Later tonight, I'll find out if those mirrors were optional or accessory).

For the interior the parts book only lists The Glare-Proof Rearview Mirror accessory for ’54, gp.16.068 pn.986948.
If you have any more info I would like to see it also.

Thanks | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 | Here is an illustration of the non-glare mirror and bracket. page 21 of the 1954 Truck Data Book (Oct 29 edition) - TRUCK ACCESSORIES - Mirror Bracket, Inside 1947-55 (All models) It looks like the mirror bracket could be ordered separately from the non-glare mirror. The 1954 interior mirror-bracket being a different arm and a different non-glare mirror from the none glare mirrors used 47-50, and 53 (shown in the MPB). I do not know about 51-52 - they are not shown in the MPB, but a non-glare mirror is shown in the 1951 Truck Data Book. I can't find any "standard" interior mirror listed in the Master Parts Book (or Truck Data Books) for 47-54. Does that mean that I have to put a non-glare mirror inside my trucks, if I want to be "correct"? Regarding the installation of the 54/55 interior mirror arm, here is an earlier post with some photos. | | |
