Are all rear end caps supposed to have 3  philips head screws in the lower portion attaching to 1/4 panel?

It depends on when the car was converted. Some early cars have less.

Hi Chris, if it helps any, my #772 car with a February completion has 1 phillips head screw per side and they are mounted toward the bottom of the cap right above the lower valance.  The later cars I have 1665, 2310, and 2585 all have 3 Phillips screws per side.

Maybe others will chime in with what their earlier cars may have.
