Can anyone help me on the location of the fuel line from the tank to the fuel pump. Looks like it runs from the tank along the inside of the bottom flange of the frame rail to the battery tray, then switches to the underside of the frame rail flange in order to avoid the framework of the battery tray. After that point, some one cut the line off and I have no idea how it's routed on over to the fuel pump. Any help will be apreciated. Thanks, Ed.

It does indeed run from the tank to the inside top of the bottom part of the passenger frame rail. There are holes for the stove bolts and loop type clamps to hold it in place. Where cross members interfere the line dips down and than back up. The battery box is another place where it runs below or in line with the bottom of the frame. When it reaches the cross member that is at the back of the engine it crosses up and over with two gentle 90 deg bends. To go over the cross member the line runs at an angle from horizontal. There is a loop type clamp for that line on the back of that cross member. After the second 90 deg. bend it follows the bottom of the starter approximately even with the outside edge. Then a 90 deg. bend at the back of the starter toward the block and at an upward angle. A final 90 deg. bent to align with the inlet fitting on the fuel pump. A seamed tinned steel tubing was originally used.
