Finally got around to running the a/c and heater hoses today. I'm happy how they turned out. We ran them through the fender behind the sloshtubz into the cab

5 months for all the major stuff that enabled me to show it this summer. Then we worked out bugs and tied up loose ends like the a/c etc from there

Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"

Decided the air tank needs to be satin red like the interior so I took everything out. Will post pics after I get it painted in the next day or so
