Merging the face of a front-engined FWD liftback coupe with the body of a mid-engined RWD roadster is no easy feat

A UK enthusiast has created a one-of-a-kind Toyota MR2 roadster with a front-end from a Celica. Though both sports cars are from the same era, they have wildly different characters and layouts. While the build has fitment issues, the owner remains optimistic about refining the final product. Update 10/19: The vehicle's owner reached out to Carscoops, revealing more details about his ongoing build.

Ryan says that having limited funds and no access to a garage means that the process is slow. He also admits he is new to fiberglass fabrication, which explains the misalignment issues. Overall, the implementation of this wild idea is far from perfect, with large panel gaps and misaligned components giving it the appearance of a post-fender-bender repair job.
