I had placed my '55 Courier with 223 I-block 6/Ford-o-matic in mothballs for several years up until recently. When I pulled it out of the garage, there was a nice puddle of ATF on the cardboard I had laying on the floor under the car. It took about 3/4 of a quart to fill the trans back up to the proper level again. Now that the seals are wet, it's not leaking anymore.
