Did you buy them from American or a shop? They don’t offer a 4.5 back space on the website. Unless I missed it…which is entirely possible!

Looks great! What brand wheels are they?

Thanks, I appreciate this. It’s very helpful!

I’m thinking an 8 or 9 inch width rim with a 275-60-15 tire

I’m looking at getting a set of mags for my ‘72 and am wondering what the maximum backspacing is for the rear wheels to fit our cars? I’m thinking 5” but I’d rather note guess.

Ok, I’ve got one on order with SS396. They had it in stock and they said it should ship today. Updates to follow!

Yeah, for sure. I typically look for a mirror that uses the separate mount. Like what’s on the drivers sport mirror for the ‘72 custom. From there I’ve ground the base to make the mirror sit level. So I’d expect that there would be some tweaking required no matter what. But since SS396 is selling them the idea of making one is mute.

I’m sure he could do it but he’d need one to work from. I don’t have one to send him. If someone wants to loan one I’ll talk to him and see if he’ll give it a try.

I have a cousin that I’m close with. He has a large 3D printer and I bet he’d give it a try.

Thanks for the pics Joe, that helps a bunch!

I saw them. Do they look like they’ll be straight when installed or set in place? Any chance you could post a picture of them?

Hey guys, is there anyone repopping the drivers door sport mirror that was on the ‘72 custom? I looked but didn’t see anything. I did find that most places show the 68-72 chevelle sport mirrors to fit 70-72 Monte Carlo’s but I’m pretty sure they don’t sit right. Seems like somewhere in the past I’ve seen someone using them and they tipped inward. OR…it’s all in my head…I’m getting old…🤣

Thanks. My bases are bad. I pulled the drivers side off and it only had the one I attached the picture of. And yep, the tab broke immediately upon me putting pressure against it. So only one of the three that are supposed to be there makes me feel like the passenger side is probably similar. Someone did an awful job putting the doors back together after painting the car.

Good morning Rob, I didn’t realize I had to do that. I’m going to be straying with my son who lives there. I also won’t have my car. I was planning on kinda floating in and out, mostly just meeting everyone and such. I planned this trip with my son at the beginning of the year mostly to see him and his family and to do the Carlisle swap meet. I actually only found out about the mini-meet a few weeks ago. I’m out of town until tomorrow and will sign up once I’m home. Thanks for the info!
