I've had this laying around for a couple years and decided to get started on it.
It used to belong to my brother in law and it sat around neglected only used occassionally. I should've posted pictures of the muck that came out of the oil pan.
It has some rust on it, but this is the worst spot.
It's got some mechanical issues to remedy and I came across a Jasper rebuild motor with low miles on it to shove in it for now.
When I got it it was pouring oil out of the valve covers. The shop my brother inlaw used for inspection and maintenance told him they didn't want to see it anymore. He called me and asked if I wanted it because he was going to junk it. For the cost of transfering the title and a pizza it became mine. Replaced valve cover gaskets and no more leaking. Drove it for a while but the motor has issues.
