What is this side mirror?
1968 GTO on sale at BaT. Seller says their father was the original owner and bought the car in 1970. He stated in the auction comments this side mirror was on the car when their father bought it. Seems to be a well-documented car.
Anyone here know what this is? Link to the auction: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1968-pontiac-gto-91/

I think the company was MG Mitten. They had ads in Car & Driver, Road & Track etc. It's been 50+ years but a drawing of a male English driver dressed like Jackie Stewart looking over his MG comes to mind.

Yep did some research. Looks like this mirror is a Talbot Mirror sold by MG Mitten who was based in Pasadena California in the 70s and often took out advertisements in Car and Driver and other period magazines.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
