Yes, and the passenger side mirror on a C is worthless because you can't see
anything with it.

I always get an after market clip on mirror that gives me a panaramic view
behind me and igonore the passenger side mirror.

60 BT7 which came with wing mirrors over the axle
69 MGC with standard mirrors and position
72 MGBGT much modified for touring with the mirrors repositioned over the
axle

Good point Jackson,  FWIW,  the door mirror / wing mirror combination was I
believe '69 only (factory Installed) MGB,MGC.

My '65 BJ8 has two bullet style mirrors dealr installed  @ one foot from
windshield on fenders. Problem is the radio antennae gets in the way of the
pass mirror view. A set up like the MGs could help in that situation.

It does look really cool on the MGC ,maybe its the different style mirror
(which might be too new for the 3000s ) or just the different placements of
them that is appealing to some.
