760 engine swap 700

Also, at least in the US market, the 760 was a completely different car forward of the windshield. That is after 1986. The early 760 looks just like a 740, but with 15" wheels as standard equipment.
The 87-up cars have fog lights in the nose, a more pointed grille, and different hood, wipers, front bumper, fenders, headlights and turn signals. The wipers are under the hood- no cowl as with a 740.
Why they bothered to make 2 cars that are really so similar, I'll never know. I do know that the level of complexity of 760's seems to turn people off from them, and they're quite cheap because of it.
