Kirk's........1960 Double Cab

[SlashKirk]

Ted is correct and I bought mine off the internet a few years ago. I tried to find another set but they are now unavailable?!
Watch Ebay I guess....

Ive noticed your wing mirrors Kirk, i had a set as well which ive just sold im told they were made by vwportugal esp for commercials , great all round vision convex glass

Those are Unimog mirrors, it is just flat glass and a little larger. They are very nice and not as expensive as the "correct" part. I have a set on my single and they work well.

Ha i was told lies by some unscrupulous dealer over here then we have a word for them Hey Toolbox will the store be getting some more in stock ?

There were several dealers on eBay in the US who were selling them when i bought them, it's been about 8 years though. When I bought them I only spent about $35 shipped for a pair. I see them pop up once in a while, might be easier to find in Europe though.

The unimogs are great because the mounts would actually stay attached if you tried to adjust them
I must have four broken garbage WW (who ever makes them) ones
