Default I think I'll stick with 6"round

Now we know that CMPs started out with cheap, and readily available mirrors when they were built so some where along the way things have been turned up side down.

The latest visual match found by Dusan look very much like the original mirrors but at the cost listed work out to cost something like $650US plus VAT, shipping and import duties for the six I would need for my 3 trucks is a little rich for my blood particularly as I seem to loose one to breakage each year. Drive these trucks in the woods the mirrors tend to be like whiskers on a cat they are the first thing to touch.

But we can all live in hope of find the mother load of a couple of crates full of unpainted versions. But if people keep looking maybe we can create a false market and some body will jump on the bandwagon and start making them.

Thanks for posting the information, always fun to read.

Cheers Phil
