Mo - that is a left hooker so isnt forced to be the same spec as a later UK car.
I have seen really early UK trucks with that hook rail arrangement but we are talking as early as 82 / 83 MY vehicles.
Also its the same arrangement on the inside cover of the Haynes Manual - same hook rail arrangement shown on a early UK spec truck.

The rubber arch extener - that looks custom / home made to me.

Quite a few MV's breaking on ebay so you should stand a chance of finding the parts your after :)

I've seen a few Brumbys with those hook deals on the sides but never known whether or not it's a model/year that comes out like that :???:

That strip/moulding trim (and mudflaps) on the side looks like the same one on the MY wagon or sedans.
