I purchased a 1955 Patrician. Very low milage of 6,972 miles. It had been parked 40 plus years. Ran pretty well but loud lifter noise. Turned out 5 rocker arms clogged and had worn down the 5 pushrods at rocker arm socket. If your car was parked for years check this first. Cost me gaskets and 5 NOS pushrods. Runs very quiet now. It had no oil pressure problem with rocker arms end of the oil line.
