1954 Panama here. I'm leaking from the oil pan (new gasket) rear main, power steering in two locations, and at least one place on the transmission. It is a cornucopia of leaks.

Eventually I'll deal with them all. It's just not high on the priority list as I tackle other issues. I just throw some drip pans underneath and watch my fluid levels for now.

Yes you can get 100% leak free. My dad's '38 Super has zero leaks, but the engine has been rebuilt with every single seal being new. I don't plan on rebuilding my '54.
