There are no actual 100% correct mirrors. Like antennae's, mirrors were a dealer installed item so they can vary.

But being such an early car, the round 101 mirrors seem to be the norm as opposed to the Pear shaped mirrors.

The mirrors that go up and angle out or the ones that angle out then go up? The one that was on the car before my rugrat broke it went up then angled out and i cant find one.

Original 101 mirrors go outwards, the vertical.

The reproductions are known as Roscoe. Those go up, than out
