Gorby Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I assume that the things circled in red on the doors are mirrors. Its that the case? I'm building an Opel Blitz at the moment and I can't find any photos that clearly show what they are. Thanks for taking the time to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) Most probably indicators, that kind of vertical shaped rearview mirror wouldn't be very effective.... Edited July 29, 2018 by Artie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you replied I've been trying to find out how they would have worked, but no luck. If they are indicators, I assume that they would have been a semaphore/pointing type of indicator rather than blinking lights. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 You're right, they're semaphore type, not blinkers.....the same kind of indicators that most old cars sported... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackG Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Artie has got it, an indicator that swings out - no lights. I can't find a quick photo that shows it deployed, but they are found on German half tracks as well. regards, Jack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
