It is likely that this car is a mosaic, patched together from 2 other 
bodies. Or it could be the body from one and the pan from another.

The trouble spots are at the rear of the front wheelwells and the

hidden inside the wheelwells.

Then there is the whole area around the rear wheelwells and the 
bumper brackets, front and rear.
