Hi all!

I found this peep mirror at a local swap meet. The seller stated it was for a 40 Chevrolet coupe. GM box with Group # 10.185 & #986178 on box. Can anyone tell me what I bought & if it is correct for a 40 coupe.

Thank You!

985236 is a 1940 mirror.
986178 is a 1949-1950 peep mirror.
The 1950 parts book lists it as fitting a 1934-1950 but would be the correct accsssory for 1949 and 1950 only.
They are also being reproduced with this number but the mirror is nothing like the original.

Chevgene,

Thanks once again for your help! I thought it was too good of a deal to find so I did not pass it up. I do have a friend with a 1949 who I know would enjoy having it so I did him a favor.

Thank You
