[DeTomaso] Ford mirror part number?

[Curt Hall]

 Mike...
I know I have the Original Mirrors and gaskets from My 73 Car! Didn't see them with a quick look tonight. Tomorrow I'll move the Cars out and do a Better look! Will post any numbers I find. Maybe someone else will have the Numbers tonight?

 All,

Does anybody have an original, stock chrome door mirror lying around? Steve Liebenow is trying to get identifying part numbers for it. It’s widely known the Pantera used a generic Ford mirror for the 67 Mustang (and other cars) but the gaskets differ between applications. The Mustang had a convex door top so the mounting gasket is thick and shaped a bit like a boat—flat on top, curved on the bottom, and unusable on a flat Pantera door top. If he could find the actual Ford part number (which is cast into the underside of the mirror base) then he could cross it with all other Ford cars that used that same mirror and perhaps find one that works perfectly for the Pantera. 

So many people have installed aftermarket mirrors, surely somebody out there has an original one on the shelf somewhere?
