1970 Sport Mirrors on a Judge
I was at a car show last Saturday and noticed a GTO Judge that had Olds 1970 Sport Mirrors on it. I asked the owner if he was aware of that, he replied no, that he bought the car like that. I couldn't talk him out of them....They didnt look terrible, they had a little inward lean to them but heck It was an improvement!
The local weather lady even did a short live TV news shot sitting in my car! Kind of fun!

Looks like the same car?
Edit: oops, the car in your pics appears to have a green interior instead of the saddle in the car linked?

... as for the mystery of the sport mirrors:
"Though styling looked "oh so good" for 1970, the GTO and Judge unfortunately did not get the 1970 Firebird's stylish new sporty body colored outside mirrors. Pontiac realized their mistake and offered them in 1971 on the GTO and Judge. Of course it's no surprise that many owners who restore their 1970 GTOs and Judges install the sport mirrors" (as seen in the pictures).
Since the car listed is a Judge clone the mirrors could be original to the '70 'Bird....
