That made me laugh - but agree on the progress. Do something everyday! I just need to take my own advice!

Because of the square tubing style chassis, it becomes difficult to snake the fuel and brake lines front to back. When I built the chassis I installed a raceway for the the lines to hide in.

I needed a way to retain the #8 line, so the little tabs are just a place for an aluminum zip tie to loop through to keep lines retained and out of harms way. A billet guy like yourself would have fabricated some billet stand off, I am a keep it simple stupid guy, and didnt want to worry about retainers coming loose, and lines dragging the ground

Unfortunately my love for old Power Wagons has had me building them in between my touching this car. Just finished bending the cage in the truck, turned out really nice.

That's awesome work as usual, Ron. Glad to see that you're back here getting lost in the details. Nobody needs a hotrod at reality show speed . . .
