Z Oil Change: Miles or Time?

I had a cobra (garage queen) that was driven maybe 1-2k mile a year. I changed the oil with mobil one every 6 months. If I remember correctly you need to wait to switch to synthetic to let the engine seals break in.

Should I then wait for the fall (second) oil change (maybe 3500 miles on the odometer by then) to go to synthetic, right?
