Hi and  happy Boxing day btw..

I'm starting to dismantle my engine bay prior to  its refurb and as I'm
documenting how things are configured I can see that  something isn't right
with the brake pipes from the master cylinder and  also found a metal clip 
that
looks like it should have been anchoring  something but isn't.

I wonder if anyone has a correct  picture  that corresponds to the ones shown
via the links below. There is a plastic  clip apparently designed for two 
brake
pipes located where the brake pipes  look like they may have once been and it
would be interesting to know what  the original routing was for those pipes. I
have also circled a metal clip  on the driver side inner fender just to the
right of the PDW switch which I  am suspecting may have originally anchored 
the
metal pipe from the clutch  master cylinder.

This is a 1974.5

Stan,
 
   The mystery clip secures the steel clutch line to the  frame. It's the 
one-piece line connecting the clutch master cylinder to the  "plastic" tube 
connected to the clutch slave cylinder. Mine's spun 180 degrees  relative to 
your 
photo with the screw towards the firewall and the clamp towards  the radiator.
  Hope this helps.
 
Regards,
Vic Snively
