I own two Deluxe station wagons that originally came with tire mounts on
the hoods and they were not dished. These were the rolled hoods not the
utility style hoods. They were the original hoods and these rigs were deluxe
station wagons and not deluxe hard tops. They are both early Series 2's (59
and 60). In the early days you could order about any combination of options
you wanted to. Later Rover started standardizing option packages and
restricting options in the North American market for some reason.

P.S. I have since converted the 60 over to a dished hood
