Been doing this for a while now.
Changing the caps is easy. Don't send it to Cary it's a 30 minute job.

So I shouldn't use it?

Sounds great still. Maybe I'll replace them myself.

I actually own an English car. The good news is they put an american V8 in it before it left the factory. (sunbeam)

I would replace them and you can DIY.

I thought the Alpine Tigers were the bomb when I was a lot younger.

Did you end up replacing them? Or leave then seeping a little?

Classic high end move.
Did you get this fixed? Was it oil-in-paper/copper caps?

Another English car joke: Lucas, prince of darkness.
That said, my TR-4A back in the day was quite reliable.
