I know that lots of people on this forum have an interest in other Italian cars...

So here we go again...
What car (most likely Italian,) was this mirror originally fitted to..
No not the car in the Pic..
 
An Italian one?

On reflection, in view of that I have that this might be from a vehicle of UK origin?

Well given the car it is fitted to is of Italian origin and made in limited numbers to order.... I would assume that it would be something easy to hand....
it could be a roof mounted mirror with the glass turned 180 degrees then obviously screwed to the dash...
Originating in the late 50s.....

Others may have been fitted but this style seems very common..
I have one that is simply a piece of glass with a beveled edge that looks like many aftermarket type mirrors of the 60s similar to may uk ones by Desmo or Winguard......

but prefer the style in the pic... so trying to find one..

seems popular choice...


Found a Merc one that is similar but not 100% .

think it is a 250SL so perhaps an earlier Merc?

Any Merc experts ?:D

Sorry.. I thought it was one of your trick questions where you knew the answer already. [emoji3] You definitely don't want or need that look on a Fiat 500.

Unfortunately without a roof to attach a normal mirror to...
the dash is the only place left..
