Was it an oil smell or more like electrical insulation?

If oil, I'm with MCA and think you may have a leak on your exchangers. I have that problem with my 79SC. My leak is from both timing chain covers and I think I have another from the pressure switch. Smoke comes through the vent on hard acceleration, braking, or turns.

Fixing these leaks is on my to do list for this summer.
