It ain't broke brother, it's just an old Pontiac. Drive the hell out of it. I wish that I had room in my garage for it.

Rick,

That's an incredibly minor leak. Mine used to bother me, but I've realized it's just "classic car problems" and I could spend a fortune chasing them. Better to pay the $10 for pan and...
