It runs and drives great. Just smokes a bit. I think it’s the valve seals.

Got it into the driveway where it will sit for a bit. This summer we’ll do brakes, coolant, and tires.
Mine smoked a bit on startup for the first few hundred miles but it has pretty much completely cleared up at this point. Valves seals are certainly suspect after sitting so long. How’s the transmission shift?
