Let the pictures do the talking.

Passenger seat full forward, drivers seat as far forward as sensible for me. Gutted, not my next daily

Took Yelotus to a local vintage & exotics cruise-in, parked next to Famous Frank's S2 and Greg Z's FHC.

All cars look well-maintained. You are lucky that you come across them and managed to get these beautiful images.

Well today I fitted a traffic cam - the neatest smallest high quality tiny thing from Garmin. Smaller than my thumb, talks to my telephone with great quality pictures and sound if you want it. D.

rotor flipped reverse ?

rotor flipped reverse ?

Nope, a lot more serious (and dangerous) than that, likely need a close look/zoom (at the caliper mounts).

Rewelded on lugs... yikes

Looks like a crack along the lug to me. Also, probably welded as pharriso points out. Then again, they don’t necessarily look straight either.
Good thing you noticed, suppose finding a used one wont be so cheap.

Correct and not very well done at that, but in this case not the most concerning issue.

That's it. I knew about the not that well welded up lugs but the crack was new to me.

Good thing you noticed, suppose finding a used one wont be so cheap.

Luckily as I knew about the bad repair (but not crack) I've already picked up a NOS one up from a member here for a reasonable price a year or too back. Which I was planning to fit as part of my rear end rebuild I am doing.

The original issue I believe was a failed donut and minimal/poor repair of the damage. So also some fiber glass and chassis repairs to do while I am at it.

You dodged a bullet there mark

Hmm... I just acquired a pair of rear uprights that came off a Sprint. They are grimey, so better give 'em a clean to make sure I am not in the same boat...
Thanks for your post - I probably would not have been planning to be so diligent otherwise...

More likely dodged a ditch, lamp post or tree

It's worth cleaning them and checking but my crack was caused by a previous poor repair of the caliper mounts after I guess the caliper was ripped off by a donut failure. It is very unlikely your upright will have a issue.
