I used a metal fuel line recommended by another list member (Randy?). It was bendable by hand and allowed me to duplicate the shape of the original with relative ease. It came in a 8? coil. Give me your contact info and I?ll mail you what I have left, which may be all you need.

Message-ID: <8b94e66299ff42eb84eedd1abc730458@ranteer.com> On Tuesday, April 19, my adult son and I are leaving Dallas and driving to Tucumcari, NM, staying in the Blue Swallow Motel. Not my first stay there, btw On Wednesday we are heading west on route 66, planning to only get as far as Albuquerque. We will see the Unser Racing Museum and do the ghost tour that night. Thursday we are again headed west on Route 66. Don't know how far we will get. Ultimately we will turn north at Kingman and head to Reno where my daughter lives, scheduled arrival some time Saturday. Anyone on that route? Repair shops just in case on that route? The ride is a 1972 TR6, heavily modified engine and suspension including the GoodParts triple carb setup, lightened flywheel, billet aluminum water pump and aluminum housing, polished, ported head, decked block with oversize pistons, etc. We run about 11 to 1 compression. Seven inch wheels and wide sticky tires.

If you can spare half a day, Route 66 west of Kingman to Oatman is worth the trip.? Especially if you are in Kingman anyway.? Also, you will be passing Meteor Crater and the Painted Desert/Petrified Forest National Park.? Both of those are worth the trip.? Next time I get out there I will time it so I can spend the night at Wigwam Motel in Holbrook AZ.? One of the very few remaining Wigwam hotels left. Enjoy the trip.
