If interested:



35+ year-old grease in adjustable cup (Note, bike has not been ridden in over 30 years)



I believe the drive side.



Fixed cup.

Curious the difference in colo(u)r of the grease from one side to the other.

It was very, very gooey, but I believe its lubricity (I love that word) remains, tho the crank certainly didn't 'spin'.
