Junkyard Dog Registered: 11/23/01 Posts: 20036 Loc: Eagle Point, Oregon	The fuel line from the gas tank to the fuel pump was all one piece. Edited by Bill Barker (04/20/09 08:54 PM) Edit Reason: Too many brewski's. I changed "once" to "one". :-) _________________________ The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"

Junkyard Dog Registered: 11/23/01 Posts: 20036 Loc: Eagle Point, Oregon	You can purchase the correct steel line already made in the correct configuration from the Filling Station in Lebanon, Oregon. _________________________ The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"

j1932 Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 02/16/09 Posts: 76 Loc: Kentucky	Thanks for the picture offer, I can use this to check my work. I have already purchased and spent two days running the steel fuel line for my dads car. I have several pictures from the web and two cars that I can trace the clips for the path. I think I did a good job of coming close to original. Your pictures will tell me a lot. Thanks Dog for the filling station information on fuel lines. I want to do some of this stuff the hard way, otherwise it would be like buying a restored car. I Must be CRAZY! Thanks Jay
