On the later panels the left hand side is lower than the standard MK1 panel, this explains why the right hand section doesn't have the seperate drop down section. The notch is to clear the Frame rail that the armour is riveted to.
Kevin could you offer that panel up against a MK1 type to see if the overall height is the same please? this may help in knowing if the left side drops to the height of the MK1 or the right hand side is shorter, or perhaps a bit of both.
That style looks a lot easier to make, I assume that's why it change.
