[DML] Re: RIGHT HAND DRIVE

["Chris Parnham" <chrisparnham@xxxx>]

Dear Claud,

I cant find the picture to wich you refer, however, could it be one where
the photo/negative was printed backwards? The photo of my car in "Classic
Cars" March 99, page 82, was..this made my RHD look like a LHD!

All I can say is that I have seen 9 RHD cars at close quarters and none had
the position of the petrol filler area changed over, indeed both my Auto's,
have 2 brake servos fitted, one under the spare wheel and one in the engine
bay, the only difference is the "header tank" for the brakes in on long
pipes, on one car under the spare wheel,and the other one right next to the
fuel filler.
