Last night I got the transmission bolted in (3 out of 4 bolts ain't bad) and the interior is all back together except for the shifter, which is waiting on the rear end rebuild before I can put the driveshaft in to keep trans oil from coming out the back.

And because mobile editor won't let me upload more than one goddamn picture I will post the rest in a comment.

All the engine electrics are plugged in, radiator and fan are in, now I just have to connect up one of the fuel lines, get a battery, connect the exhaust, fill it up with fluids, and it should be good to start here soon.

I don't like how my intake is situated. I'll be buying a Rabid Chimp intake pipe in a week or two. I think I may just go ahead and replace the brake master cylinder, lines, and front calipers first. I don't trust any brake system that has been neglected to the point of housing an algae colony.

This is great. The car was lucky you found it. Not many people would give a shit about an old Toyota wagon.

Heroic. Can't wait to see it running.

Please do replace the brake stuff. I finished a rebuild on my 1980 Malibu and didn't do the brakes. The test drive was a little more exciting than it needed to be and i ended up doing them anyway.
