The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Low mileage original--is gas additive needed?

Close by neighbor bought a 1966 T-Bird with only 28,000 miles on it (still has the new car smell!) so therefore it does not have hardened valve seats. Does he need to put lead or some form of additive in the gas???
At least non-ethanol gas is plentiful in our area so that's not a problem.
