[DeTomaso] Weber IDA48 or injection?

Hardly anyone does the conversion that wants it to be invisible.

I had seen several Weber conversions with the two semi-circle cutouts prior to 
seeing a conversion that used the straight-cut approach. 

My first thought was how did the owner move the engine far enough forward 
to avoid having to cut the decklid? It took a bit more close-up inspection, and 
looking at an adjacent Pantera, before I realized how it had been done. 

IMHO, the straight-cut approach leaves the body lines so slightly changed that 
the conversion becomes invisible. 

Those two semi-circles look out-of-place every time.
