Ok. Here is the engine compartment with just the beginning of the "gross" cleaning. Because it was GROSS!! It will be perfectly cleaned with no alteration to finishes, patina left in place. My understanding is it is all original with the exception of Petronix added inside the distributor. Original coil was left in place. Close ups will be shown. Please give comments on anything not original if you truly know it is. I am rapidly learning about these as much as possible. I have collected unrestored muscle cars most of my life. Had this car fall into my lap. Always wanted one. Thanks for the help!!

Btw. NOS can be correct BUT is not original. Original is what was on the car when it was built. NOS is a factory part that was on a shelf. Now it may or may not be correct as suppliers change for the same part at times and slight changes happen during production so you have to be careful as just because it is NOS does not by definition mean it is 100% correct for a said year of car. Hope that helps
