Assuming the 0.325 figure is accurate, you have to consider that number in that time period. I bet 0.325 was a big deal in the early 70's. I seem to remember reading that the mid-80's Lambo Countach had a 0.50 cd!
The high nose looks rather aero-unfriendly, and they didn't seems to spend much effort around the lower wheel wells. Testing automotive aero back then was probably a bunch of trial and error, and with the bar set so low to begin with...
