I'm ready to put new fuel lines in Babydoll, and guess what? I can't find anyone who has the tubing (stainless, 7/16" and 3/8") described in Clay's article. There's a Pelican article that describes how to do it with brake lines, but I really think the way Clay did it looks way cool.

Anyone have a good source for these in Maryland?

I guess I'm screwed for waiting so long to look into this. I ASSuMEd that these would be commonly available parts that any auto parts store, or possibly Lowe's, would have.

Babydoll's owner is supposed to come over and help do things with Babydoll this weekend, and I guess we just won't be doing the fuel lines. Bummer. I do need a helper to drain the fuel tank, though, just in case anything goes terribly wrong, she can hose me down with the fire extinguisher and call 911.

Let's see... replace the speedometer cable, drain/remove fuel tank, demonstrate how to measure crankshaft end play... I'm sure I'll think of a few other tasks once we start digging into it.
