Thanks pal. I'll do some research on this. Didn't get into this yesterday, got sidetracked, and considering this is the first time I am doing this kind of replacement, I'm procrastinating a little admittedly.Paul, no doubt you have read posts on replacing fuel tanks and line recently.
I have a massive hard-on for NOT using worm gear clamps on fuel lines. Please make sure to use approved proper fuel line clamps.
The car will look great in that color and hopefully you'll have it done by your 91st birthday!!
All the best with it.
I did a fuel tank replacement with new SS lines and rubber tube replacement including a 3/8" solid fuel line to the Holley 670 cfm carb.Thanks pal. I'll do some research on this.

Great watching your progress, it's impressive! Love this end color goal you've set... It'll be another masterpiece.Ultimately this is the color goal. Although the hood will be black.
That being said, I should be done sanding it by my 90th birthday. It started raining here now...so moving in inside to tackle the fuel tank / line swap out...which should be a treat.
Yeah, I'm aware. But as mentioned, I'm replacing all those parts with new ones, as the old ones were in pretty bad shape. So in this case, I wasn't worried about masking them.getting that primer off the handle, lock cylinder and front side marker will be a bugger. I would recommend first to remove those before priming or if it is a driver while work evolves mask them off. Please remember painting is 90% prep in most cases. Not trying to be critical just wanting to offer suggestions to consider.
