Trevor Ross thought this email from Ron deserved to be shared Hi Trevor, Adventurous day yesterday to Salt Spring. We had 4 cars, my 356, Rob's Gullwing, a friend's Fiat Spider and another friend's Alfa Romeo. We drove up to Duncan, had breakfast at the Doghouse, then went to Crofton to catch the ferry. One of the guys noticed my engine smoking oil in the ferry lineup, so we opened the engine lid and there was oil everywhere. Visions of massive bills danced in my head. We had time, so we checked things over and found nothing obvious. Added some oil, and I texted Arthur Connor, a teaching friend and amazing Porsche expert on Saltspring, hoping he could help.
