LMC sells the mirrors with the brackets for $50 each side.

Beware of LMC quality...you could try eBay or Wesley Obsolete parts.
 
They are called swing-away and can be found all over the internet.
 
Ya, I've never had any problems with LMC either.

Autozone or O'riely's usually has a few sittin on the shelf, don't know if it's a local thing or not, but I'm sure you could order through them online. I bought a set for my 78 just like the ones your lookin for a few months ago for about $30

So those fit ok? Wasn't sure as they are intended for 80 and newer trucks. I was afraid they would not have the top bar flat like they are supposed to be. The 79 and older trucks have a bit more kickout on the door than the newer trucks do.

The bars look a little different than the originals, but they fit just right.
 
JC Whitney has them, black or stainless. I bought the black ones for my Bronco, they aren't as high quality as the factory stuff but work just fine. I actually beat on my Bronco so it doesn't bother me to much, but for somthing else I woulda bought the LMC mirrors. The Whitney was around $50 for both if I remember right.
