It looks like a 87-93 GT with an aftermarket rear wing!

May have used a donor 87-93 GT for all the exterior. Headrests are 86 for sure. Interior could be swapped as well. Would need more pics to see for sure. There is no side view, but he may have swapped the quarter windows too. Easy swap!

This. All the body panels swap from '79-93, so it's easy to make a 4-light car look like an aero car, or vice versa.
