66 rear view mirror identification

Which of these mirrors looks correct for a 66 windshield frame mount?

do all 66 have frame mounted mirrors?

 

[Schenkapotomus]

do any vendors make a repro frame mount mirror?

Oddly enough looking at several old 66 bronco reviews and I didnt see any rearview mirrors in any of them. Could have been a option or a dealer item. Id be inclined to say both may be correct. They are fairly similar ford may have had a design change or The vendor they bought from had a design change.
Do they have any ford part numbers on them?
The second pic looks very close to the mirrors some scout 80's had.

Thanks guys! That's what I thought as well. I have pics of 6 different rear view mirrors on different 66 EB's. I think they used anything they had.

I think they used whatever they had left over from other makes. My sept 65 built 66 Roadster has a old t-bird style rearview mirror mounted to windshield glass. Looks original as there are no holes in the windshield frame for the style that mounts there.

I have this same one on mine. What came on the 66 for rear view mirrors I think is the biggest mystery topics of all of the odd 66 things. I have seen no mirrors to various types of mirrors but this one is more common of them.
