    LOL And there is not a picture of the engine. So we don't know what that looks like.

    modified engine cover? All I saw was individual filter elements over the carbs. Not really the best thing for getting cool outside air into the engine but I guess it works OK. And yeah those are 328 seats not QV or injected car seats. Car looks beat to hell

    Look at the hump in the middle of the deck lid. It has an extra large bulge. You can see from the inside pic it looks like it's riveted on. It must just be for clearance, I don't think you'd get much air in there.

    Oh now I see. Its the shiniest part of the car. It looks like the intent was to add some sort of cowl induction. I dunno is there much airflow in that part of the car for it to actually work? Anyway like I said before the car looks beat to hell.
