Does anybody recognise this mirror? This from the drivers side of my LHD GTE. Living in a RHD country I am considering putting a twin onto the right hand door for overtaking purposes. If I can’t find one to match, is fitting a pair of Talbot Berlins period correct and acceptable ? Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Ok so 90 views, I guess nobody has the same mirror? It's a shame, as I would ideally like to source a matching one and not have to start again.
Both my previous 330GT 2+2s, #7895 and #7647 had the Talbot mirrors and they both were originally sold in Italy. Photos from 1973 and 1989. I think the Talbots were a common add-on in-period for the 330GT 2+2, but I am not sure about the 250GTE vintage. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thank you Peter. I have a 1960 Alfa with a Talbot mirror, though again I don't know if that was a factory option or fitted later.
this would look more appropriate. original. produced in the 1960’s Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
To be honest I would try to find a matching one or leave it as it is. I have Talbots on other cars but do not think they are nice on the GTE. Mine has a single mirror in style not unlikely the one you have. I prefer this style on the Gte.
an interesting side note, since you are in germany, this mirror was stamped W. Berlin. i think newer mirrors just say Berlin.
