some much space between the front of the engine/rad and the front header panel.

The C-4 is confounding though. I'd have gone with at least a 6-sped auto or a 6-speed stick.

I wonder what it has for wiper linkage. It has an electric wiper motor on the firewall, but the holes in the firewall when the wiper cable pulleys mount, has the holes open, so I have to assume that it no longer has the wiper cable system that was used in 57 Fords. And I agree, putting a C4 behind a Coyote engine seems a bit strange. Cool looking car, although I think the factory 57 dog dish hubcaps look nicer than the earlier ones on the car.

I missed something.....I saw 3 speed automatic, but not the C-4 referenced. That would be a tough mate-up I would think.
My guess is the car has a whole aftermarket front clip.

   Those are 49-51 caps but I agree they do look great.
