Also, lots of aficionados refer the to the Perana Diff as a X.1B, this is not the case. it is a X.19. What I meant to say was, lots of aficionados refer the to the Perana Diff as a X.B1, this is not the case. it is a X.91.

Gutted to say the least as i've been waiting a long time to get stuck into what will be a very long restoration process. Lots of other very rare parts also went missing but i need the diff to get this ...

They are narrow in the SA body. All 3.0 shells in the UK have a shorter, wider battery tray, pushed futher forward...
