    Besides the engine replacement and rebody, what, if anything is correct?
    No relation whatsoever.

    Thank you.

    That body is sad. All wrong. Hopefully whoever purchases it has it taken back to pininfarina spec...

    I only hope the original body hasn't been butchered yet and someone with enough balls, heart & financial wherewithal will acquire both and restore the poor car back to her original* configuration.
    I know it's a tall order, but one can hope.

    *Heck, there might be someone willing to buy the sad replica body to help off-set the cost of the restoration.
