1970 W31 Engine photos

Purchased a 70 W31 this past year in need of a little TLC. Overall really correct car as far as parts and #s go just was neglected for some time. My goal is to do a cosmetic restoration on it for now and get it running well and dialed in. I would appreciate an engine bay photo or two of a "Correct setup" that I could reference over the winter as I pick away at it. Found plenty on the web that probably are not good ones to use to say the least. Thanks, Matt

It might make a difference if the car is a manual or automatic transmission. Which one do you have?

Great car Matt. I had one for a couple years not long ago. Just a heads up that the Facebook W-31 Owners page has lots of closeup photos from a few dozen different original and restored cars that you can grab for reference.

Other than the master cylinder (have the original) and the radiator cap, this is an untouched original engine compartment. The inside of both fenders has 31 or W31 (don't remember which it is) marked.

Thanks for the photo, already see a couple things that are not correct on mine.
