Not to be picky also, but on a half-million car..
I wouldn't expect to see a spot of rust anywhere.. Calipers should be redone to factory finish. chipped/flaked paint on the engine underside air baffles. Was the front suspension significantly different? The panel that protects the steerig rack and master cylinder doesn't look right; it only has 2 bolts. I agree, the rear wheels look 'lost' in the flares. Sadly, as a car that was originally sold specifically for racing, this one will spend the rest of it's life as a garage queen, only trotted out for shows. |

I agree in general but rarity and desirability is everything. This car sold for $230k and i think i spy some rust lol Attached image(s) |
