that has been something I wondered about too. my 61 has the 3 screws for an original mirror on the left door only- I'm guessing they did not offer a factory right side mirror in that year or else someone bondo'd over the screw recesses.Raymond

I think you will find welded nuts on the interior of the right door. As an option i believe they drilled the holes. Take the panel off the right door and reach up into the front corner of the interior of the door. See what you find.

All driver-side doors, have a mounting plate with weld nuts. The passenger-side door has the same plate, with holes, but no weld-nuts on the mounting plate or holes in the exterior skin, unless the passenger-side mirror was installed at the factory or at the dealership. The backing plate serves hole location well.
