I can’t imagine it having a VW engine with that type of front suspension

It’s a Mustang II front end, and the car is…not attractive.

I agree. Replicars generally are an abomination. The thing underneath the fiberglass has a VIN. That’s what it should be registered as. Maybe the person who converted in found the donor vehicle abandoned on the side on the Southern State parkway or the LIE.
