When I restored it I was bound and determined to return it to its as-built configuration. The relative scarcity of RHD parts made that project challenging, to say the least.
Yes indeed David, looked for RHD engine tins for a 35 for 25+ years!!!! Chased many leads!!! On par with "hen's teeth" and the "needle in the haystack".
