What is wrong with this picture?

I am parting an 85.1 right now and noticed something amiss when I took a good look.

Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song. "I built it one piece at a time and it didn't cost me a dime." hehehe

since everything else is wrong, I wonder if the torsion bars are the same side to side ;-)

Are you talking about Torx? I've never seen a 3-star? I have a 7-piece set from Sears I've used for years.

It also had a fart pipe and the cold air intake cone, so nothing too much surprises me on this one.

Did the car come with cruise control? I'm looking for a small bracket + c-clip that attaches the cruise control cable to the accelerator.
