Something just doesnt look right about that car. The outside was obviously nice and clean before the wreck. The interior needs some good work. But the underhood I have questions about. Its pretty bad under there with the rusty frame, rad support, etc. But what really got me was the brake booster and master. Seems awfully low on the firewall. Was it ripped from the firewall? And whats up with the white paint on the heater box and the master?
I dont know. The underhood doesnt match up with the condition of the outside.

It looks like the m/c is mounted to something -- it isn't hovering in mid air, and it appears to be hooked up...my guess would be it's using the wrong stand-off bracket from the firewall.  The stocker should angle it upward, and this one appears to just stick out.  But you're right, it's definitely too low.

I'm also wondering if it has a radiator -- there's clearly no top plate or shroud, but I can kinda see some of the flex fan through the support that I don't think I should be able to see if there was a radiator in place...

It clearly needs a lot of love.

Maybe itsomeone scored well <a href=someone scored well IMG_20140722_183011768_zps5bupcr9s" /> could  have it been a manual brake car converted to power?  Honestly idk what looks "funny" about it.  It's in the same place mine is, except I don't have a booster.

More than likely the booster was replaced at one time with a smaller diameter one. That's why it looks odd. Definitely smaller in diameter then our original ones.
