A close study of the rear springs will reveal that they are designed with the inner coils closer together and the outer coils are further apart, just like your diagram shows.
However, I am calling attention to the fact that my 66 rear innermost coils (#3,4, and 5) are spaced closer together than the same innermost coils on my 65. I think it's because they lived a harder life than the 65 springs. I agree that the general shape is still the same. I can fit my finger between the innermost coils on my 65 but not my 66.
