Tom,
I know that line is available new, but I can't remember from who. But if
you order a new line you may want to get one for an AD truck instead of a TF.
The AD line is a bit longer and will allow you to get the guage out of the
dashboard far enough to unscrew the line without breaking it. (Guess how I
found out about that!)

Subject: [oletrucks] original oil fitting
I
will call around tomorrow for this fitting, but I thought I would ask here
first to see if someone knows if these are available and from where.
http://www.coopscorner.com/55truck/55misc/oilfitting.htm
It is the fitting
that goes in the back of the original oil gauge on a 1955
Chevy 2nd Series. I
actually think both fitting are the same. I found a kit
with a plastic tube,
but the fitting that goes to the gauge will not work,
and I don't think the
fitting I have will work on plastic. I found a copper
line kit also, but it
has different fitting as well.
Are the original fitting reuseable, can I use
these fitting on a new copper
line? I feel sure these fittings are available,
but I need to find out from
where.
Thanks
