Ah yes! Acorns under the hood, I know it well. I've found them in a number of places on several vehicles, mine and the park commission. Then there was the recent problem with the printer at my office in the park - turned out to be a mouse nest deep inside the case - lots of fun to clean out...

A CUCV (or any of our beloved green machines) brings to mind a sign on a friends boat:
A Boat (CUCV) is a hole in the water (air) into which you pour money (and love!)
Enjoy it, it will teach you all sorts of creative profanity. :)
Spray all of the bolts, etc. and let them soak a bit. I removed mine by removing all the bolts from the floor - and after a bit of soaking and elbow grease - it came out fine.
Hold the phone, I found some photos:
