I could be wrong but I do know there is this style for the '55-59's. It doesn't clamp on. The base is contoured to match above the door window and you attach it with 2 bolts with holes drilled through the door - not clamped on like most peep mirrors. I also thought I read somewhere at sometime where the spare tire caused a need for this. May have depended on the size of spare too just as you found out.
