Yoshi's Cressida
Das right. As some of you may know our fearless leader, the head baconator himself, hath bequeathed unto me the Cressida of Doom or something like that. I finally have some parts for it and am working on it so I figured I would post pics. The car has a blown head gasket and is leaking oil. I am trying to replace all gaskets and hopefully get it running properly.
The car:
The motor:
My little paint dealio:
$50 shipped ebay engine gasket set:
ARP undercut head studs:
Let the removal of lots of shit begin:
Intake and misc throttle bits and pieces
Radiator out
Upper intake manifold
Got the wiring harness out of the way
Lower intake manifold off
Pile'o'parts
Since time ran out and I had to go into work I put everything in the trunk
That was all for today. I may do more tomorrow if I get a chance if not I will do a lot on sunday.
All that is left to do the head gasket is to take off the exhaust manifold, valve covers, cams and head bolts. But I am also planning on changing a few things while they are easy to get to.
