How cute!Is that a V8?
I remember back in the day when my engine bay looked like that. Except no bov like you, Actually whats the deal with that?..Looks like u have it blocked off but a vac line still attached?..Inside that little black canister is there like a little diaphragm or something?..Doesn't really look like a bov tho?

hey guys started to paint the interior plastics in the back to match the door trims,will be taking photos of the trims and other stuff to show what Ive been doing.Getting the rear trims done in a few weeks so hopefully can start doing the stereo,then some new front bushes and hope to get the paint and panel sorted soon
