    my torino only came with the drivers side, it was a common thing back then to only get one mirror

    In the early years, only Grabbers or Comet GT's had the sport mirrors. Standard Mavericks and Comets just had one chrome driver's side mirror.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    nope... plain old chome one with inside remote... correct me if i'm wrong but i think that mirror was unique to the LDO

    Looks like Grabbers (except for a handful of 70's), Sprints and Stallions got Dual Racing mirrors standard. It was an option on all other models ...

    I think LDO's got a remote control chrome driver side mirror standard ...

    As stated ... any model Maverick could be ordered with dual racing mirrors. Just like any could be ordered with a 302 ... any could be ordered with bucket seats.
