Just needs to betouched up.Minor oil drips around new chrome oil pan gasket when installed- this is so minor I decided to leave it given I had already replaced the oil pan gasket twiceThese are all minor issues that do not affect the drivability of this breathtaking classic car, ust wanted potential buyers to be aware since most can't come and see it in person.
