Here's a couple things I've noticed while pouring through old photo's, etc...
The hull MG is almost always pointed off to one side (assistant driver comfort)
The headlight assemblies are frequently missing (if you don't have 'em, they can't reflect light)
If you actually sit in the driver's seat, very little of your head/body protrudes from the hatch.
the casting flaws are sometimes very noticeable. (great for sloppy hands)
Helmets were frequently kept within arms reach
just thought I'd pass it on.

Interesting observations. I hadn't noticed the missing headlights. Thanks for the tip.
