Default really nice 79-WS6-L78 car on BAT

There is currently a really nice 1979 Trans Am on BAT that some of you might appreciate being made aware of;

LINK

Unless I have missed something, it appears to be an original L78 (in 1979 this was the only way to get a Pontiac 400; required 4 speed) with WS6 & t-roofs.

Looks to be tastefully done.

I am curious on one thing;
I have understood that many areas which have emissions testing, the car cannot have an engine swap - or it at least has to be the same as OE engine, with all emissions devices present;
This one has none of that nonsense - does this limit bidding because of jurisdictions where this car would not pass the visual portion of the inspection?

Pictures added to thread for posterity.
