Well.....It's quite obvious!

410 HP is not enough for any Marauder!

The windows are tinted too much for racing. Boom what do I win!

Look closely at the side of the car, especially at the rear quarter.

It's a 63 Ford. Not a Marauder at all.

And whomever made those bodies needs to learn how to mask off properly. There's lots of bleed through.

Sooo close. It's actually a 1964 Galaxie body.
