You guys seem to care about oil changes way more than my 42 year old 305 does.
Grandpa Car: 1979 Cutlass Thread

I thought that car had an engine swap coming? 😉 Just kidding. I'm not making any fun car progress lately.
I'd like to say soon, but best I can muster is eventually.
There isn't much urgency when the 305 does a good job pulling it down the road. It's not like you have any other projects to work on anyway.
I agree with both points. I drained probably oil at least 10 years old that sat, looked fine on a 76 Cutlass. I change oil in my vehicles every year minimum. The cooling system was a different story, looked like mud. I ran it a little bit, I shouldn't have. The shim head gaskets rotted through on one side. If I wouldn't have pulled the heads, it would have seized. Another cheap bit of insurance, change the coolant every few years.
Lunch at the park.
It's not the frozen tundra there this time of the year?
Not too many people, not too hot, not too cold. Ugh I'm jelly.
Low 50s. Trees are just starting to bud.
When you mentioned how grumpy you were the other day my thought was that you just needed a taco cruise.
