Thanks, Bobby. Yeah, pulling the engine would have really sucked. Actually it was one of Auto Zone's online vacuum line diagrams that helped me figure it out. I usually dont buy parts there but they've got a lot of info on their site.
I should be doing a short road test tomorrow; over the last few days I wrapped up a lot of little stuff. I built a new shifter handle with some 1/2" stainless rod, wired the radio and put a check engine light in next to it, got the carpet and seat back in, plus some other goodies. Still a fairly good list of misc to finish but it should start making some short shakedown trips this week.1 Corinthians 1:27

You've done a great job all the way through on this on, taking something many people ignore and making it a viable cruiser. The interior indeed looks great, and compliments that lipstick red outside 100%. Bet she'll turn some heads around town on the shakedown runs!Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Thanks, all. Other than a few minor bugs to address, it's pretty much done. My wife and I gave it a bath today and took it out a little. It runs and drives really nice. Should be hitting the first show next weekend.1 Corinthians 1:27

Well, congratulations on building an awesome looking sleeper and if you don't get a reward for that interior alone, people just don't get the " Old School " look, I love it and the whole car is bloody marvellous.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Yes sir, I like it. Beautifully done!The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
