I think you have an early fixed arch widebody car like I used to have not a narrow body car. You have cut outs for the rear lights and shoulders.

 

This may make your search easier, poss trim ZK protector, ideally trial one and see if it fits.

 

I made my arch protectors from 1 mm aluminium.

 

From the photos it looks like the top of the rear of the tub is sloping, if so it may have broken away from the rivets underneath holding it on to the chassis, quiet common if carrying a spare wheel. Best have a look and check. I've had to reattach the rear of the tub on three cars.

 

I went to Shelsey a few months ago, absolutely loved it. Best of luck with your plans👍

Which rivets are you talking about?  I'd like to check mine.
