I have not been on here in awhile and probably has been answered, but just saw the Mobil 1 Classic Motor Oil Synthetic. Is this something I should consider for my 1940 Super? If yes, over the years have always used the old fashioned non synthetic oil. If switched to the Mobil does anything else need to be done other than a full oil drain to switch over? My rear rope crank seal has a bit of a weep, will this cause more of a leak? Just saw Lucas has a 10-30 classic oil, good?
And lastly, doing a valve job, do you put any lubricant on the valve stem upon reassembly, or leave clean and bare?
Thanks as always.

Also, in doing this are there any hydraulic lifters available? Would like to purchase a couple good ones just in case?

I talked to him and he stated he would be interested in selling the cars separately from the parts. There is a 1953 Clipper, Caribbean, 1953 Mayfair, and 1952 Patrician. If anyone interested they need to talk with him directly. I can set up contact information. Thanks

Will try to get more info out of him. I think he tried Max several years ago, at the time were not interested, too big? Again, at his age he doesn't want to fool around with separating things or cars. Sometimes dealing with senior people is like squeezing jelly in your hand, no matter what you do it still squeezes out. From what I can tell much of this stuff he had rebuilt many years ago and sat on the shelves. From what he tells me much of the ultramatic parts are now very scarce?
Someone really needs to go there and talk to him straight in his eyes.

I can ask, but pretty sure all or nothing.

I don't think he has a price. I have been after him for many years to do something with all of this. He is well into his eighties and no longer working on the vehicles. I can try to coax a bit more out of him when I see him next in a few weeks. He wants the cars and parts all gone at once, I think?
That is a Caribbean under the tree, it used to be a daily driver around 20 years ago.

You can see if this link works? If it does I do not have photos of the two sheds which include core and rebuilt engines, and one with transmissions.https://1drv.ms/f/s!AuR9SQ-jamsRgQs-GiJKJMievOqn?e=aWmiDZ
