Re: Rear Disc Brakes?
Badges are a dime a dozen, and many folks "make" something out of nothing by replacing badges - maybe a previous owner thought it would be cool to have WS6 badges on a plain jane car.
Rears are easy to swap as well - maybe someone swapped rears to get better gearing, to replace a toasted rear end, etc.

WS6 did not require J65 (rear disc). You could get a Formula with rear drums.
