Outside mirror

Is it possible for a RR to have no outside mirrors? My '72 440 has mirrors on both sides, but there are no mention on the buildsheet, only a ' 1' ticked in the box for inside mirror.
I guess they were added later?
thanks

I guess it can be some package, that includes an outside mirror?
thanks

I don't think it was possible since the gov't required at least the left mirror. Now don't ask how it breaks down inthe build sheet- no clue.
since we're on the subject, ( and not to hijack the thread) but has anyone seen the remote controlled passenger side mirror?

The non-rallye drivers mirror was standard on these cars. If it's not coded otherwise, that's what you'd have (and you have no mirror codes on the fender tag)

Thanks Eric, now to find one of these mirrors...

I had to look for one also. The first on I bought looked good until I tried it on the door. Be careful I have two here and both of them the base is warped. Didn't know white metal did this. Anyhow I did find one in Carlisle this past summer with the base straight.

I think there is one on ebay right now but it has studs? Mine has screws, maybe someone on this board will know why.

should have screws...the studs are for a different year and/or body style
