Sage advise indeed, for PapFranklin or any of the rest of us. I dropped the pan on my Clipper (after 3 hrs of figuring out to loosen the steering idler arm, duh). The pan was actually pretty free of sludge, BUT I would never know that w/o looking inside first.

The main things I am learning is respect for this old beast and technical/mechanical know-how on what to do/check next. I know it can be trite but, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." If you want a new car, but it or build it.

In the meantime, enjoy getting to know the old one.
