Hello Bob,
that was excactly what came to my mind when I read about the linseed oil. I used linseed oil for my oil paints and if the linseed bottle had not been in use for a while opening it was nearly impossible because it had become hard. Other vegetable oils, as suggested by the company that sells the seals, possible?! I do not know.
Concerning the weather. If it rains my car stays indoor... have been doing this for the last thirty years. Of course the weather in the southern parts of Germany is pretty hot and dry. Even today we had temperatures beyond 30°C and I took my Austin on a 97 miles tour through the lovely (unfortunately dried out) forests of southern Germany. One drop of rain (well... slightly exaggerated) and the car is off the road.
Regards
Frank
