Chuck,
Spitfire M3's were fitted with a variety of mirrors through the production
range from what I can gather. I've heard as many as 14 or more different
styles!! I've never seen one like the one you have now, but the Mk3's were
typically simple, flat, 4" round chrome mirrors with a three or four inch
base. Usually just one on the driver's door for the outside. But again,
there were many styles and makers used, I believe. I could be wrong.
Take care,
