I was looking at purchasing another 76 Eldorado coupe. I noticed the vehicle does NOT have a passenger side view mirror. It appears to be original paint and does not look like it was removed. I don't believe I have ever seen a 76 Eldorado without the passenger side view mirror.

I realize they weren't standard on older models from the 1960s or maybe even early 1970s.

Anyone know if this was an option to NOT have have the side view mirror? The car seems to be well optioned so it seems unusual to me.

The right door Mirror was an option.   Not sure when they became Standard.

Right side mirror was optional thru 1978 except on the Biarritz. It became standard on 1979...
