The chassis is set up for certain parts, which is great if that's what you have or want to use, but anything different means likely extensive modification. Are body panels available? If not, that's a whole project within itself. Kinda depends upon what your plan is, street car, autocross, trackday tool?
Description says it would make a good Emod, but the size and I suspect weight of it would not be well-suited to that...also not being based on a production car frame would make it very difficult to make legal for budget-limited Challenge classes (maybe if you drape a production car body over it...would need to be something large). Some of these cars may have NASCAR-level extreme cornering bias including unequal L/R suspension geometry/lengths so keep an eye out for that.
But it could be good for other things including a general fun autocross car. It should be able to fit massively wide slicks, with those plus suspension and a powertrain you'd have a pretty good track day/autocross ghettocet. A TAS Batmobile replica would also be a worthy goal
Track day, challenge car & autocross car.
Yes, the chassis is offset.
Yes, the suspension geometry will be less than optimal.
It won't matter because it will be fun; find some wrecked V8 powered rear drive car and install the bits from that in the chassis and go have fun.
In reply to GameboyRMH :
E-mod for this is a lower division of dirt track cars. Dirt works used either 64-72 "chevelle" or GM metric frames. Normally cut off just in front of the rear "kickup". Probably has stock lower control arms and tube uppers. Dirtworks cars were the hot ticket for a while. Not sure they are still in business. They had sheet aluminum bodywork. Wheelbase is probably 112 or 108 inches, depending on when it was built.
There is a Facebook group I have seen that turns old dirt cars into street legal rides. I have not joined the group. I have seen it before here and there.

Oh, you had to say that, didn't you...? Especially with this group?
