was the same belly pan/skid plate/steering shield used on all early cars up to 1973? Unfortunately mine seems to have gone to the great pile in the sky of 'parts that go missing during restoration'. There is a decent original one for sale in the US but t only say for early car and rhe seller doesnt know which of the early cars it works on.
So were all of these metal belly pans the same - in the photo it certainly looks like the one i took off my car......

Hi
Can't answer specifically, but to say I think LHD is different to RHD (I'm obviously not sure if you're RHD) so that's one issue to be aware of.
Good luck!

Swb are different to lwb for sure and if you are Rhd then I would pray for a miracle.

There are several variations depending on year and as you have suggested LHD and RHD do differ.
We make a 'universal' RHD shield that will do the jobb but isn't 100% correct for any model.

There about £120 quid new. One of those original parts that are never in good shape.

Didn’t Alan at Canford Classics say a few years ago this was a part he was getting remade?
May be worth giving them a call
