You may find that the car was never fitted with a reverse lamp. I am trying to find out the exact date that reverse lamps became required by law, but I believe that it was as late as the 1980s. Before this they were optional.
If this is the case then you will probably find there is no defined position for a reverse lamp, and you can put it wherever you want so long as it is on the offside, and it is between 250- 1200mm of the ground.
