Yeh, wide-body with turbo script on the decklid and a tea tray.
But he says the injectors work when he lifts the air sensor plate - the AFM on 930 CIS is downdraft, pretty sure.
Also, the '77 didn't come with a tea-tray; 3.0 930 wasn't intercooled, didn't need the turbo decklid/tail base with the cutout for it. Some have retrofitted intercoolers/later tails to 3.0s, of course.
But the AFM plate needing to be lifted? Doesn't sound like a 930 in the back to me - my money is on a sheeper (the opposite of a sleeper). Or replacement motor, if VIN says the tub was 930.
The '77 3.0 non-intercooled 930 had the same brakes as an F-body middie of the same year (first year for the servo) - so same rotors/calipers, smaller than the SC and not really ideal for use with 265HP... Often referred to as the "chocolate brakes"...
VIN or motor #'s would be the easy way to tell. Suspension pickups/banana arms/wheel bearings are different on the 930s - but could have been swapped from a donor.
Tach (with the rare 1.5 bar boost gauge - the 3.3s, introduced the next year, went to 1.0 bar) would be another tell-tale.
Still pretty much stole it for 15K, if it runs and drives with a wash/fuel system flush...
