Wheel Spacings on 80 series

Quick question - I put some new front and rear panard rods and noticed that whislt lining up the left hand side of the car with string and lined up perfectly front to rear, the right hand side was out about 15mm front to rear, and I wonder how this can be if the LHS was level. In any case no problem with the way it drives as such, just a bit puzzling. I know way back the MK I had was like that, in other words the front and rear were not the same track width, so mabe the 80 is the same?

Any help appreciated.
