Default Brake Pipes 3/3/12

Made a start on the brake pipes today. Got most of the front ones done and ran the two to the rears. Im just unsure which connection the lines run to from the front, theres a side and top connection on the rear compensators which one do they connect to? anyone know?

Default Fuel Lines and other bits 8/3/12

Hi all. got a few new parts for the car this week. managed to track down a mint fuel pump cradle and pump for a good price, Also got two brand new Ford steel fuel lines ( wont say how much i payed for these lol :rlmao: ) so i got those fitted along with the rear brake lines. Lines just need a good finishing off to look spot on. i got a front mount intercooler all brand new in the box for 200 quid which i thought was a bargain. Last but not least i piked up a set of chrome seat belt anchors for 14 quid so was pretty chuffed with those, got one fitted and they look real good. Wont be any updates for a week now as im off to scotland. pics arnt great as had to use phone!

Loving the work mate. Doing the same to mine so I know how much work goes into it. I guess it must be me but the front end looks a little high compared to the rear a part from that, I am really jealous.
