Couple of people have pointed out my mental paralysis in my reply this morning:

1. There was indeed a convex right side mirror from the late 80's model on. (not on my 87)

2. The Nissan Quest is a clone of Mercury Villager , not the Ford Winstar!.  I guess I just gave myself away.. I have been look at so many vans in the last couple of years anticipating the inevitable death of my Vanagon, that I can't keep track of what's what anymore.
