I've been working on an early Type 65 lately and was having trouble fitting the original spec fabric coupling / solid prop shaft because the body appeared to be sitting too high in relation to the chassis rails. One of the problems (unfortunately not the only one) appears to be the seat rail bolt circled in the attached photo which is located directly above the chassis rail and the nut lifts the body up. The hole for another floor bolt fitted further back (hole circled) has been drilled through the chassis rail and doesn't cause a problem. I'm fairly sure both bolts are original but it would be nice to have confirmation from some other owners. Possibly with new chassis rail felt fitted there wont be a problem.
