There would be no pan bothered to be fitted where there ain't a lot of salt rain and muck hurtling about under there in S.A.
Don't know if the belly pan is classed as been an extra on the build sheet ...so up to the customer to add it ...some would be on and some not .
Have you seen him belly dance at the Pink Flamingo Club? The last time he did the wobble at the end, seismologists in California were ringing up asking what the hell was going on.
It's the far end in paras pic that's different. The flange hanging down part of the chassis was different. An Early one would fit a late and you probably wouldn't even notice.
I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow. I bought it off someone on here ages ago but it needs a couple of the tabs rewelding. But if an early one fits a late bay then I'm happy.
Are the side pans worth fitting? One of mine is rotten, was fibreglassed into the seal by previous restorer!
