It's not the inner wings. What they have done there is fine. I have to say that they have more metal in it than ours, the dash bar for one. They don't appear to have the rear seat and bins in though.

Are those useless bits of metal on the sills hiding something. Other than adding weight they appear to do nothing. Mind you they obviously don't care about weight as they have full metal doors with barely any lightening.

The front end is removable? and therefore not of original construction?

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting.

That is the obvious conclusion, but it won't work the floor is too high off the ground to make a defuser have an significant use. Apart from add weight.
