It would be a "factory car", IF it used the same brand of transmission and rearend that the car came from the factory with, like every other factory built Stock Eliminator car, that is actually in the NHRA Stock Car Classification Guide, which last time I looked the other day, NO Toyota vehicle is in the guide. The factory car came with a transmission with several more gear ratios than a 3 speed Turbo 400. A Japanese Toyota car with a German BMW engine, and an American GM transmission, and a Ford rearend sounds like quite a stretch for a "Factory Stock" car, let alone a traditional Stock Eliminator car.
