OK i have to say this cus you left the door open.Lets say you live on a 1 archer lot and your water main is about 2000 feet away with the main shut off valve would you install a shut off valve closer to the house!!!

I owed over 20 of these trucks most of them are from 1960--66 and trust me you want as many places in wire harness or copper lines to have brakes in them

Had a 1964 short bed some one took out the copper line and ran a steel 1 line to the gauge well I burn that truck to the ground.

I bought it for 700.00 and i drove it for 2 months one of the engine motor mounts was broken on the driver side I guess the PO did not like the copper line with the connector in the middle so he replaced it with a solid one that was so ridged any moment of the cab or the engine well when it broke it sprayed all of the engine bay and lite.

You ever put out a Oil fire there not fun wish i have a shelve.

I think i had enough time to open the hood and get at least 3 to 4 thows of dirt before i would of lost the hole truck.

I glad your asking questions I'm not fond of newbies working on these truck or any thing that deals with oil and gas.But do your home work

GM really made it easy on us working man to maintain there old car's and trucks with short cuts like that copper line
