I know, I know, I've said it before, "like hollering 'SQUIRREL' at the National Dog Show, the discussion of oil in the Model "A" but now I'm having that same friendly discussion with a friend.

Someone here made me believe that Mobil 1 was the way to go. Remembering that the P.O. said that that was the oil he had been instructed to use (by rebuilding mechanic) I went to that brand.

NOW, my friend says he believes that Valvoline VR1 Racing oil (which I DO use in my '69 Mustang) is what we need to be using because of zinc.

I argue that when Henry was building these cars mineral oil was probably the the 'oil d'jour' but he argues Penzoil was used and that it DID have zinc in it.

I still think that since we change oil every 500 miles that that makes for a VERY expensive annual oil expense!

Ok guys, I open it up to you, what do YOU think?
