Why do the proportions look so good now that I know there's an engine back there?

Well, that would make a really good challenge car as is, or a really good donor for the x1/9 I have sitting here.

"no idea if it runs" -- funny, most ppl get more motivated by the test fit, they were like "ahh screw it, just leave it in there"

I like those wheels on it. Is the transaxle hooked up? It looks like it might be. From my experience that xmission was the weak part.

"no idea if it runs" means "I know it doesn't run and it's probably bad but my midwestern nice is willing to not crush your hopes and dreams"

I wonder what he had in mind for a windshield? Chop the top first and then find out there is no glass to fit!
