If there is a way to mount '89 model mirrors on a 67-72, it won't be easy. That type mirror is made into the shape of the door/window and I can't think of any way to adapt it to an earlier body style.

If you want a more modern look the only two options I know of are certain Ford F-150 mirrors and Mazda Miata mirrors.
