Cleaning up a GTU: Pictures!

My friend bought a 88 GTU on my suggestion.
It has 156k, 30k on a mazda reman. The bumper has been replaced along with the whole exhaust next weekend. The was dirty as hell when I got it so I have been very slowly cleaning it up. Heres the progres.







Its like they drove it through a field.......
Oh wait they did! Look at the underside .

Still awaiting new tires.....
