Original vs. Reproduction: Wingard Door Mirror (Triumph GT6/TR250/TR6)

Small Triumph Sports Library & Archives, “Short” 3 (November 2025)

This video involves a comparison of the original Wingard door mirrors that were installed on the Triumph GT6+ (and other models) with the currently available reproductions. I originally wanted to include this comparison as a segment in my last regular episode but couldn’t because I could not figure out where I stored the Wingard door mirror original to my 1969 Triumph GT6+. I eventually managed to get my hands on the mirror, but it took me until the end of Thanksgiving break to get to this “missing bit.” I hope it is of some value to someone out there. Please note that historical background about this part regarding the GT6, as well as the manufacturing defects I encountered with my reproduction mirror, is discussed in the previous regular episode (Episode 30).

The standard statements: As always, my videos are based on some combination of research and experience.

Initial notes/corrections, pedantic nonsense, and self-mockery:

This episode was wholly unscripted/hastily planned. I’m sure I will soon enough think of things I should have said, or things I should have considered, etc.
