40 lube or lube check points every 1000 miles on my 1962 GMC K1000
 
28 grease fittings, 7 lube check points on axles, T case, trans. 3 on distributor, oil cup, breaker cam, points pivot. 2 cups on generator.

If maintained according to schedule, thats 4000 lube operations at 100,000 miles on top of all the longer interval operations such as oil and filter changes, front wheel bearings and axle, rear axle lube, trans and transfer case changes, and oil bath air cleaner. Probably those might add another 100-200 lube operations by 100K miles. Not including daily engine oil level checks.

There's 8 of them, 6 are lubed by grease fittings on the drive shafts, the 2 in the front axle knuckles use knuckle lube and the level is checked at the fill plugs.
