Mx36 Cressida wagon. Wood paneled.

Hi all. New to the forum. Been lurking for a while. I thought I would post my build here and hopefully have people pm me with some nice deep offset 15-16 inch wheels they have for sale : )

So quick synopsis. Bought this a couple months back from a pretty cool guy in the Seattle area. Drove it for a while, but eventually the head gasket quit on me. Right now I am not too far from finishing the motor. I hope to see it running by next week. Anyway, on to the pictures.

Right after I bought him

Getting ready to pull the head..

Head finished. Not perfect, but in great condition
Image
Shiny!

Pizazz for the valve cover

After pizazz

How he sits now
Image
Spent a lot of time scraping gasket.
Image
The downside of old cars, had to cut out my own exhaust manifold gasket.
Image
Cleaned engine bay parts. Got some goodies in the mail. No bling yet... That comes later
Image
Pillar in the way... Stuck with garage pics for now.
Image
Gaskets came early!
Image
Head back on

Should be running next week! If I didn't mess anything up that is... Suspension is on the way. Still need some good wheels, pm me if you have any. Also any good sites for wheels you guys know of?

Lovin' the wood panels, man. :)
