Arm rest location in a '64?

My '64 didn't come with arm rests and I want to install a set.

Is there someplace I can get the mounting location or is it just put them where they work best?

I only have the template for 60-63, sorry. They install with two cage nuts.

take both your panels off the doors and mate them together , so you can trace the holes from one to another , that seems to work all the times i did it.

We put them where they are comfortable to the owner/driver. Previous post re: tracing driver's panel mounting holes to passenger's side sounds like a good idea. Tho' not factory, to save install time, we started mounting them with thru-bolts using lock washers & nuts on the back side (may present later, minor problems!? But, even did my own this way with no regrets 2 years later.).
