With the welded on valve cover tabs,and blue paint peeking through, I suspect it is a target motor.

Hood, flares, butchered side vents... easy-peasy.

Originally Daytona Blue, not sure what that new looking collar piece is at the top of the steering column. Wow, that engine compartment is ....uh...

Ad pulled because of an “error in listing.”

There are two different links now in the thread. The second link is the car in primer.

I think you are reading it wrong. The link takes you to a page that tells you the listing has been ended, so it suggested a similar sale... that’s the one in primer. Click on “view original item” for the one we are “reviewing” here.
