Re: RHD vs LHD structural
The only difference is the steering damper on the RHD doesn't show, I think due to the picture angle. Something else?

The double diagonals from the front of the tunnel bottom to the 'roll bar' mounts ain't there.
You RH-drive guys: Is this correct or did someone blow it?
And Doug, yeah, that's missing too.

Re: RHD vs LHD structural
My 62 RHD has the K section and the pedal reinforcing and a flat section under the spare tyre well and battery. Is that 1960 model different?

Actually, I knew, but I was giving the guy a chance to explain himself.
On the other hand, here's a RHD that looks interesting.....
pedal reinforcing plates on both sides....who knows what has happened through the years....
