Default Noise in the back

I have a new noise in the back right of the car. I have an 86 bone stock 350 with 140,000 miles. It sounds almost like a card caught in a bicycle spokes (that tells you I'm an old guy), except its a softer sound, not quite so hard edged. The sound gets faster as rpm's increase, but it's not tied to how fast I'm going. If I sit in the garage in neutral and step on the gas, the noise gets faster. I only happens when the engine is cold, and stops completely within 10 minutes when the engine is warmed up. It doesn't usually start again when I get out of work approximately 10 hours later (I park in a garage), it usually starts in again the next morning (I keep my car in a garage at home).

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help
