Normally the wiring and stuff is hidden between the inner and outer wing, I've seen cars with the coil moved to under the chassis leg and stuff. That one has the whole wiper assembly removed (no rain where it lives I guess!). Danny Allens Golf is another good example: Carbs help too, no fuel injection wiring... Expansion tanks removed and the rad replaced with one with a cap directly on it... Battery in the boot... Chassis legs are plated over with a flat sheet etc etc Another VR6: This'll be a GOLD PLATED Oettinger lump:

wow those engine bays are amazing, i thought a clean looking engine bay involved gunk and some zip ties holding the wires together! i stand corrected.

You grumpy old curse word! you've gotta admire the graft in that Jetta..... even if the end result is about as practical as chain-mail undercrackers.

Alright, it's a lot tidier and not as practical with all the disguised electrics than anything I'd drive around in, but it is pretty nice!
