70 challenger mirrors

[Avalanche]

Are the side mirrors on a 70 Challenger different (from drivers side to passenger). I have s set of mirrors and the passenger side is more narrow and pointer than the drivers. I have tried to find a drivers side that looks the same but can't find one. So am I correct in thinking they are different?

Yes they are shaped different

You have a correct set, they are shaped different, they are just as you descrided. And they have a short base, or foot if you prefer.

Thanks, Why didn't they just make them look the same?
Always trying to make things difficult!

Do the mirrors you have look like this? I bought this set off Ebay and they were sold as 70 E body mirrors. I've never seen a set of mirrors that were mismatched from the factory. Am I wrong?

They are correct and are different sized due to the amount of image reflected back to the driver. The driver mirror is much closer to the drivers eye, so it needs more area to get a complete image. The passenger side being farther away needs less mirror area to get a complete image. Ever notice that all current mirrors tell you that the image is closer than it looks ?
