You have to look hard at the body in a number of places, and I won't divulge that publicly as it helps fakers. If you post up the vehicle's numbers it will narrow down the possibilities but still won't pick it for certain. Is it claimed to be a manual or auto?

If the back seat and tank are out of it post a picture up of the floor in front of the fuel tank and the RH chassis rail in the boot. Also the location of the rear brake hose to solid line bracket above the diff.
