70 Challenger Mirror

[Jess T]

Hey guys:

Can anyone tell me about the driver side rear view mirror on the '71 movie "Vanishing Point" Challengers (there were 4 cars used to make the movie). It appears to be a flat rectangular non remote mirror. I have never seen another like it on any car or in any information about 70 Challengers. The cars were supplied by Chrysler for the movie and I doubt they were changed. What gives?

I've been searching for the answer to that question myself...

I've just e-mailed myself at home (I'm now at work) to remind me to check my big 70 Mopar/Challenger parts book manual tomorrow....I'll let you know if I find anything on this...

Regards,

this mirror is the standard mirror used on all e bodies, this mirror is the chrome mirror that looks a little like the b body 69 mirror. You could also order the sport mirror in chrome or painted and the pass. side is also an option with this year

Checked my Chally Part numbers book on this...

Its a little confusing in the mirror section, but a *good* possibility for the 1970 Challenger, non-remote, driver side mirror is #299 553

Can't guarantee it tho....
