Headlights and windshield appear to be sourced from a Nissan 350Z. Was this also the source of the engine?

Yes, I saw the advanced prototype at the recent Epoqu'Auto show in Lyon and it seemed like a good idea to feature the original prototype as a puzzle :)!

Congratulations

Thank you.

However, can an admin check my point history ? I was at 970 pts after solving PN #1173, and I have solved gte4289_37 and PN #1182 since, so I should be at 972 instead of 973, unless I'm mistaken.

Pal gave you two points, so I'll subtract one, if it's okay for you.
