That thing has the aerodynamics of a 4-hole outhouse. What does the owner think that air dam is going to accomplish?

Looks like it started off life as a McLaren F1, but obviously it's been given some lovin' since it left the factory:

No photos of the interior, but he's got the interior pretty churched up, so I'd imagine the interior follows suit.

“I did some driving on ‘Bullitt’, yeah. But we had problems with the script. The script calls for Frank Bullitt to drive a Mercedes convertible. You know, he’s an educated man, he’s got a career, he’s devil-may-care about things, so of course he’s going to drive something like that. Well, somehow this was too tall of an order for the stunt coordinators, so they go to the junkyard or somewhere and come back with this clapped-out Mustang. ‘This looks,’ I said, ‘like something a pervert would drive.’ So anyway. Then these geniuses say that the car chase will be between a Mustang and a Charger. ‘Great,’ I said. ‘By all means, let’s have the two worst cars in San Francisco for this. Because I assume you couldn’t find two rusted-out Beetles.’ That’s why I look disgusted during that scene. That’s not acting. That’s the real me. Disgusted. And as you know, the scene was garbage. Watching the dailies, I said, ‘How many hubcaps do these cars have?’ Nobody could give me an answer. Apparently they kept putting the hubcaps back on. Well that’s as bad as wearing a lizard suit and humping a rubber rock in prime time. When you’re a bad guy, being chased by a good guy, you don’t have time to put the hubcaps back on. It’s a critical error that throws the whole film into question. We had other problems. If you watch this movie—we are gonna put it on laserdisc, seventy bucks and you can watch it with all your friends, don’t have to pay for each one, it’s basically stealing—you can see that all of Robert Vaughn’s pants are cut too short. All of them. Because wardrobe thought it was Robert Wagner in the movie. Who is shorter. I doubt you know that. Just say you don’t know. Don’t be a phony. I hate phonies.” — Steve McQueen, 1980
