Hey guys how's it going, I'm currently rebuilding my 1954 3100. Part of the process is an all new fuel system. I have new fuel tank, sending unit, fuel pump, rebuilt carb, and Main fuel line and pump to carb line. I even got a replacement for the little rubber hose that connects the main fuel line to the sending unit drop line. The only thing I can't find a replacement for is the drop line that goes from the fuel sending unit, down to the little rubber hose under the cab! Any idea where I can find one or will I be stuck trying to bend a new one? Thanks!

I made one out of the nickle/copper fuel line from Advance Auto Parts. It may have been a brake line, but as long as the fitting is correct it doesn't matter. That nickle/copper line is a dream to bend.

Danny,
Get a roll of nickle / copper fuel line and bend it yourself. So easy.

DannyZ, I have a '57 5700 LCF. I bought a 25ft. coil of 1/4in cupro-nickel line from Summit Racing, had enough to replace every bit of the old lines.
