Default 72 vista cruiser

Hi all, just picked up a 1972 Vista with a 350 Rocket and 82000 miles on it . JUST LOVE THIS CAR !!! Any other Cruiser owners out there that might be able to fill me in on any common quirks. I noticed the oil light flickered when I came off the highway and the car was idling in gear. Told this is common for Olds and Buicks on hot days !

Not really. I would check the level and if that checks out then get a mechanical gauge on it to make sure you don't have an issue. The oil pressure port is on the shelf just behind the water pump where the casting number is.
