the door on the closed cab was angled on the hinge side as was the cowl of the closed cab to suit the door. The other LRDG Chev Truck is a 'flat' faced cowl and the area where the door hinges would normally be is straight up and down so this is why the guard ends further forward. The dash was completely different between the Flat Face cowl and closed cab as well.
