Want to install an inline fuel filter between pump and carb - what is the best type of "line to fitting" connection?

One that doesn't leak. Seriously, I've used hard line and flexible line. I like the hard line look better.

That is one beautiful truck you have.

I would look for a glass bowl filter that would mount to the carb, and run the steel line from the fuel pump into the filter. I think this would retain an original equipment look.
