Hey, I remember it coming in quart jars with a tin spout screwed on
top, ten or so in a little carrier like a milkman might use.  My
first experience of fluorescence was looking through those bottles at
different angles.

Some of the oil went into the oil-bath air cleaner, too.

Car was a 1952 Ford Tudor...
