That is an interesting mirror, gentlemen. First I have ever seen with a curved metal frame and side screws.
All the mirrors I mentioned in my earlier reply came with the same flat style metal frame. It is the mirror glass inside that is either curved at the front, or flat. David

I thought they were all curved.

Original Ford CMP side mirror
Here's a picture of an original one on a restored Ford CMP ambulance at the Bandiana Army Museum in Victoria (Australia). As can be seen the sides are straight and the four screws are shown. Can't say for sure but believe the glass was flat and not curved.
Cheers,

Original mirror
The glass is curved so the reflection is convex.

There is the possibility a new flat glass has been fitted, or indeed the possibility that more than one type was made. The one in your picture does look to be a straight frame.
The two I bought from Argentina through E bay a few years ago are both curved, and with some spotting to the glass I wondered how I might replace the glass. These two pictures are my ones ,from one of the threads Hanno listed above. They came in original boxes.

Original CMP mirror
Thanks Keith and Lynn for your info.
Looks like CO1Q 17702-C confirms it all. Cheers
