oil film on rear bumper

["Woolf,Richard" <richard.woolf@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike and Cindy,

 I had the same problem with oil spots and a oily film on the rear bumper of my '59 Ford wagon. It's oil from the motor leaking or it could be transmission fluid leaking. It's cause by an up draft coming from under the car when driving. On my wagon it even gets on the rear window at highway speed. The motor on that car is now being rebuilt which will stop the problem.

I have a 67 crown that runs good , does not smoke, but if I take it on a long drive, it leaves a film of wet clean oil on the rear bumper and the rear of the car, any Ideas of what would cause that ? thanks, mike
