Try as I might, I could not get the spring pan to lower staying parallel to the wishbones (see pic) but it came down ok anyway.

Probably because the wedge distance pieces were missing, so there would be more pressure on one side of the spring.
Assuming the surviving lower spring seats are made of the same material as the upper wedge distance pieces, (they would have been orignally), then it is likely they have been replaced at some stage.
Do you know much about the history of the car?
