So the owner has back surgery and cannot drive or shift the 4-speed for very long.
Yet he just has to go for a ride so he enlists a friend to finish driving when he gets tired.
The friend is so worried about driving a car as valuable as a T/A he spends most of his time watching gauges as he finishes the drive home. Wouldn't you know it, about 12 miles from home he say's, "I'm not kidding you, the oil pressure just dropped instantly while I was watching the gauge." He shut it off and coasted to a stop.
We pulled the filter and cut it open............full of bearing material. The engine is in the shop now, we'll see, we'll see.
