Ill type up a bit of description later. Picked this up in the Fall of 2010. Finally starting to get going on it now.

Before I tell you, Can you guess what it is (was)? 10 points for the winner 🙂.

10 more points to the person who can guess what we plan to put in it. Hint, its an R&D project to develop engine designs, so more than 1 engine will live in here.

Yea but you have an unfair advantage.

Common, no one even wants to give it a guess?

Here ill start it off;
Is it a 1985 Monte Carlo that has been shrunken?


Answer: No.
 
The overall shape looks Japanese but the door handle and the bodyline down the side doesn't. I was thinking maybe Ford Cortina but it really doesn't match that either. I'm baffled. Need another view or hint.
 
Youre on the right track. I guess its technically owned by Ford now. Here are some more pix;

It screams Datsun to me...but the window chrome reminds me of my old BMW e21 (320i)
 
67-77 Mazda Familia or Kia Brisa?
 
^ Or ya that. In both cases the front grill has been modified though I think.
 
it looks to be a RWD and with that body style it looks like an Alfa to me..but he did say technically it's owned by Ford but I can't think of a Volvo that looked like that
