Euro 1973 Baikal 3.0 CS on BaT

Euro 3.0 CS Baikal Coupe on BaT. Looks nice….not recently restored per the ad. I like the 14” wheels. P/W all around and A/C (not functioning). Lots more information needed including typical cold start, driving, walk around videos and hopefully more details. No affiliation.

Ola! Wondering what you guys think of this car? It has a nice color/interior combo, looks solid where it needs to be, but I see the area SFD circled. The triple webbers are cool, but the air cleaners are clearly not right. Any green, yellow, red flags here? Thanks -J

Sorry - on the road. Working in Spain.

Here is my attempt at deciphering the Oracle of Donphi:

I think he was concerned by how lumpy-bumpy the sound deadening material was on top of the driver's side front strut/fender. Could be (or maybe even "likely is") an indicator of pretty bad rust to make it look like that. That material is glued down, and it's hard to imagine what else might make it look like that.
