★ Reproduction body panel for the rare RHD configuration, essential for authentic restorations of right-hand drive jeeps.
Application
Intended for WWII jeeps in Right Hand Drive configuration. RHD jeeps were originally produced for export to left-hand traffic countries (British Commonwealth) or were converted after the war for postal services or Australian/Indian registration requirements. This panel forms part of the bodywork around the wheelarches.
Installation notes
Panel requires welding for attachment to the body tub. Check fit and positioning before final assembly. For RHD conversions: note that all body components are mounted mirror-image relative to standard LHD configuration.
Compatibility
Specific for Right Hand Drive configuration. NOT compatible with standard Left Hand Drive (LHD) vehicles. Suitable for RHD body tubs or RHD conversion projects. Note: RHD jeeps are very rare and most WWII jeeps were originally LHD.
Historical context
Right Hand Drive WWII jeeps were produced in very small numbers for export to British Commonwealth countries. After the war, many jeeps were converted to RHD in Australia and India due to local legislation requiring left-hand traffic.
