WIW 62 Lancer

Glovebox is a nest of some kind, something's home.

I only want to know more about these cars.
No desire to swap in a V8, I just think it's cool, unique.

It appears to be very complete and salvageable. If I can clean it up, fix the floors, make it run, stop, safe, and drive it that's a win.

From what I can tell the aluminum engine is 225 only, so the trunk emblem is incorrect.

Are these cars all 5 lug sbp?

No, the trunk emblem is correct. The 170 is the model of the Lancer. Not the engine size. Yes, they are all SBP five lug. It's in all likelihood original.
