Brake lines and radiator pipe installed.

Well it was a tight squeeze getting those copper lines ran in the side of the car but I think they will work out just fine like they are, I just need to attach them and not leave them laying loose in the side of the body. The brake lines were a pain to get flared, no wonder everyone just buys lines already flared, it probably took a few hours to flare every line and cut it to fit. The last picture is on the side of the car you can see the spot where the upper body bolts to so the brakelock will be just under the dashboard. The rear proportioning valve will be a little bit out from under the dash but I don’t plan on letting it stick out to far of the panel so it should be no problem. I thought about putting the proportioning valve in the trunk but it would be a pain to adjust it and get it set right so I did it the easy way and just stuck it in the side of the car where it can be messed with while driving. All that is left for the brake lines is to attach them down so they are secured, I don’t think I will put the mounts on them till after the rest of the junk is in the front end in case something has to be moved around.
