One clue that may help....
If the mounting bases are somewhat flat, then the mirrors are likely to be PRE 1971. The older cars had a sort of "shelf" along the tops of the fenders, doors and quarters. These areas were rounded off in the POST 71 B bodies, ALL E bodies and The 70 and later C body cars. The later cars used mirrors with a much more angled mounting base.

Looks like 71-74 E/B body mirrors. There was a mounting width change somewhere during that timeline.
