Alan

Your fuel line looks good. It does look like it is touching the valve cover in the pic, is it? I would think that you would want some clearance around the line to keep the temp of the fuel in the line down some...Just a thought.

Keep up the great work.

It is because of you I started back on mine, progress is slow, it turns out that I have more sheetmetal work on the cab and doors then I expected. I will work on the running gear first. You have been a great motivator for me.

I picked it up at parts plus in town. It's a premade 51" steel line. They have a pretty good assortment of fittings up there.

This is still one of the best threads on the site and I always look forward to catching up and re-reading previous posts.

Thanks Mac!!

Thanks karl! Glad I motivated someone. It's hard to stay motivated on this end. It's a constant battle.

The line is not finished yet. When it is there will be enough room to remove the valve cover without much interferrance. I still have a little tweaking to do and also need to fab a bracket for it to help hold it in place. Thanks for the look out.

I've never kept ya'll in suspense about anything.................things are changing. Here is the suspense. I went to Moultrie swap meet for a gas tank and brake lines. Nobody brought any with them, which I understand why now. So anyway the money was burning a hole in my pocket.

I ordered some things, they are shipping out tomorrow. I'm sad tho because I don't have a gas tank or brake lines.

**Palf70Step** · 12-02-2009, 11:39 PM

I know that feeling. Order what I think I want/need, but then wish i had done something else. Oh well someday it will move without me pushing it.

jgh64pkup · 12-03-2009, 12:42 AM

Alan's Classic · 12-04-2009, 01:55 PM

Thanks for deleting the pic. My kids see my build from time to time. I want to keep it clean. I'm sure you can understand.

tiggamonsta · 12-04-2009, 10:49 PM

Is it usually in the house, outside, garage, or vehicle?
