The A-pillar under the windscreen posts are different on roll-up window
cars. (some square body cars do have sidescreens- the Mk2 Sprite and Mk1
Midget doors will fit on a Bugeye ) The semicircular cutout on the top
front corner of the door is larger on the early cars (I think - maybe it's
smaller - it's definitely different)
I think whole firewall, windscreen and doors, at the least, would have to
come from a later car.

Are those square-bodied doors? Do those doors fit a Bugeye? I'm just
noticing the handles and vent windows.
