Here is a shot of the engine bay right now. Jake and I took the old carb off and unbolted the manifold. This is gonna clean the bay up a lot.

Or just ask what's going on.

I was working on it by myself, Jake came over before we left for the bar and decided to help.

Yeah a lot of those hoses will be cleaned up and or removed. The bay was sprayed with some sort of rust protection stuff I believe at some point. There is some grime but the bay is black.

Yup, mainly the shock towers have the most protective coating. i can rub through the stuff on like the frame rails with a glove on.

Yes that is the best spot for structural rust prevention on mk1's! i hope they did the underside too.

Bought a new oil cap today since the old one has a hose coming out of it. Then I need to register it so I can drive it and work out the kinks.
