My '68 C/10 Stepside rolled outta Fremont with white West Coast Jr mirrors. While ''you can have any color WC-Jr mirror you want... As long as you want white..." on my 516 Orange pickup, with 1968 Model Year styling of White-face grille and white tailgate letters, the white mirrors look good.
The good thing about these mirrors is they are completely rebuildable. Unlike the Squarebody series mirrors that have to be completely replaced when the glass breaks, the old WC Jrs, come apart, and a good glass shop can cut new mirror glass and reassemble them with new rubber gaskets and you're good to go for another 20 years.
If you really want chrome WC-Jrs, buy a pair of beat up old white ones, get them beadblasted and off to the chrome shop.
