Hi everyone.

Just brought home a '53 M37. It runs, but....it has been flatbeded, fuel tank changed, converted to 12 volt, most of the original wiring harness, switches and gauges are gone, carb and fuel pump changed, windshield broken and front fenders rusted away.

What will be the pivotal point is, there's oil in the coolant and coolant in the intake manifold. I've pulled the head and the gasket has been changed before. The head bolts around no. 5 were wet. I don't see any obvious cracks or damage and suspect the gasket or maybe the head is warped. What concerns me is the pool of coolant in the intake manifold. Where is that coming from?
