What a strange "design dead-end"
Was it that the Americans were too lazy to re-engineer the floor pan to accomodate the engine between the front seats?
I hoped there might be an interior pic or one with the bonnet open - how do you do any work on the engine as it must be so far down in the engine bay?

It's a bit like doing the points on an Austin Somerset...
