That's an interesting photo, Reid Railton, and it shows some significantly curved main tubes in the space frame, something I though only the Coopers did.
I hope that photo has been reversed as the WA has its inlet/exhaust on the offside. If, as I think, that's the steering column passing in front of the engine it is wrong for a r.h.d. car and evidence of reversal. If it can be shown not to be reversed we have another problem . . .
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

Looking at the way the right guy's shirt is buttoned, I'd say the picture is reversed.

Alas this should be the correct view:
