Thanks for posting the photo of the engine compt. I see three differences right away.

There has been an electric windshield wiper motor added and it looks to be a nice install with a different motor location. The torsion level solenoids have been moved from their US location under the fender and another box for what appears to be some electrical item has been installed on the air duct on the right fender.

Do you have any history of those changes as to if they were made by the importing agent or a previous owner? Any other photos of the engine compt showing how they did the steering and pedal conversions?

You also mentioned a different heater was installed because of the RHD. Is that an all in one unit located under the dash like the prewar or aftermarket hang on heaters and is it fully integrated like the factory units with the regular dash knobs controlling temp, fresh air and heater/defroster selection?
