• Layout: Front-engine, rear-wheel drive.
• Engine family: Chevrolet small-block 327 cu in (≈ 5.35 L) V8 used across IR 300/340 family (tunes vary by variant).
• Transmission family: Period sources list Borg-Warner manual (4-speed) and optional automatics depending on year/market.
• Chassis cues: Long wheelbase GT stance, crisp beltline, subtle hood scoop/relief, quad front lamps, elegant fastback coupe tail.
• Dimensions (reference set): Wheelbase ≈ 2700 mm, width ≈ 1752 mm, length commonly cited ≈ 4760–4800 mm depending on source.

• Grid fidelity: All geometry resolves to LEGO stud grid; 1 brick = 3 plates; only official half-stud/SNOT offsets via real parts (jumpers, brackets, headlight bricks, etc.).
• No stress: No bending, forcing, torquing, jam-fits, or stored tension. All assemblies stable at rest.
• Studio validation: Run BrickLink Studio collision + connection validation: zero intersections, zero floating, all connections valid.
• Vehicle spine: Internal Technic/plate spine + boxed frames; staggered seams; overlap for clutch power.
• Surface quality: Tile-smooth where possible; clean 1-plate seam rules; consistent gaps; crisp two-tone boundaries.
• Width rule: Vehicle builds use ≥ 8-stud minimum where applicable.
• Final mockup pack: 5–8 non-cropped reference views incl. in-hand; must match validated Studio model (same parts/colors/geometry).
• QA tests: Shake/roll/alignment/symmetry/seam checks; tile pop test; roof line twist test; door stress test if enabled.
