Gary,
I have noticed on my 67 2000 that because of the way the side windows
interfere with viewing a side mirror, people have two choices. You either
put the mirrors out on the fenders and keep your windhshield really clean,
or you buy a wide mirror and mount it on the door. The P.O of my car did the
latter.
