It's sort of weird looking. Could be worse, though.

Looks like it would act as a huge parachute from that front end. Half IMSA kit, half...parachute.

When I read that it has a 1978 Vette motor. That is one of the lowest restricted hp motors of the era. He will probably realize the mistake he made when the auction is over and the current bid of $200.00 has not changed.

Terrible job done to the car.
Although the body kit still remains very Japanese-esque from the 70's.

Assuming that the motor is 100% stock I think they made 185hp... maybe 205.

Well not trying to justify the wrong done to the 7, but if you look at the motor pic it is not stock, and Im not just looking at the valve covers lol.
