As Leonard indicated the repros are available but don't expect the passenger side to be the least bit usable. They look good but cannot be pivoted enough to provide any visibility.[V]

I'm not sure why some current catalogs specify different mirrors for Champions and Commanders. Studebaker didn't. They offered the Stratoline and the Strat-O-Vu for either model. The Stratoline is the taller of the two, and offers a little bit better line of sight, on the right side especially.

Stratoline was not available until 1958 and Strato-Vue in 1962, so none were used on Commander or Champion.

Confusion caused by Studebaker's recycling of names. I was referring to mirrors from 1947. That Stratoline is AC-1400. The 1958 version is AC-2918.
The 1947 Strat-O-Vu is AC-1853, and the 1962 Strato-Vue (note the spelling difference) is AC-3310.
