Did my best to fix it by myself without painting it new!
Looks good, with some PDR tools and skills you can get the rest worked out over time.
Not so much the oil weight, but the zinc content. So I'd say get some good classic car oil in there. Castrol has classic engine oil. I think Castrol is easier to get in Europe.Still not much happening. The last US service of the New Yorker. 9/ 2015 in Osburn Idaho.
Wrong oil I say (10w30). Not it has 20W50.

As discussed, zinc is important but so is viscosity. I’ll let experts like @CBODY67 @saforwardlook and @david hill chime in.After getting a little bit into this oil think i recognised, that the German 20W50 classis oil i use is made for European cars for which the content of 800ppm zddp is enough. @ayilar convinced me in going much higher. So further I will use MOTUL CLASSIC OIL 20W-50 with about 1460ppm. Thanks for your advice!
