My 84 Westy Wolfsburg has the stainless panel.  Looks like it has been
there since new, but I am not the first owner.

As far as I know, in North America the difference was Canadian vs. US law.
My Canadian 83.5 did not have the dish drainer, and did have a permanently
attached shore-power cord.  My US spec '87 has the dish drainer, and just a
connector for a power line.

I'm off to Canada tomorrow for a couple of weeks, so I'll try to look at any
Westy's I spot to see if they have the electrical port on the side down low,
like my '83, or in-line with the water ports, like my '87
