Hi everybody! I'm planning to drive my '51 Pacemaker to the International Meet in French Lick, a round trip of about 600 miles. I recently noticed oil seeping out between the head and block (see picture). Is this something I should be worried about? Thanks for your input!

    Yes. That motor needs a head gasket.

    After you replace the head gasket your worries will be gone. You've got about 23 days to fix it. Its dried coolant not oil. Thats exactly where my 308 was seeping from went my head gasket went.
