It appears to have a one piece rear window so I presume the doors are welded shut. The pics is typical Britain in the '60s - almost no imported cars. Note two Morris Minors, Mk2 Zephyr, Anglia van, MGBGT etc. -- Last edit: 2009-07-08 10:08:24

It allowed it to be hinged on the right, off-side. I guess someone could have modified the standard doors but the central handle position is confusing.
