May I suggest you reroute your fuel line away from the exhaust manifold.
Perhaps up over the heater hose.

yea, it happened pretty quick ....

driving on the freeway, to "oh ****! i wasn't changing lanes ..."

found out the bottle jack is too tall when there is no tire at all...

I knew the tires were old, but I didn't realize they were date coded 2006 :(

... 4 new goodyears on the way as we speak

Good catch, I hadn't rerouted it yet after the valve cover swap.

Drove back to college today so of course I had to test out the new cooler by bringing some Thanksgiving leftovers with me. The cooler worked great :metal:

Abused. 1.5 tons of rock. Got the photo late but was full over the bed rails. Sketchy as it comes. This is the 3rd load. One more next weekend!

And I was afraid to put plastic tubs in my bed without a blanket.

No pics but took Clyde out for a drive last evening, first since new paint. I have a bunch of stuff to put back on. Grill, bumpers, etc.

I realized yesterday that it costs me less to insure this truck for a year than it costs to rent a truck for a day. Having a cool old truck that works is the best.

Took a nice long drive in the country, saw some beautiful little towns. Stopped to check out the shop and salvage operation of a friend of mine, brought home another Triumph project. Fantastic start to the weekend, put me in a nice relaxed Christmassy mood ... took 20 minutes to convince him (and his girlfriend) that the truck isn't for sale, turns out they've been looking for something similar for a while.

Yes, it is!
I find it interesting you are using Photobucket to park your pics. They're still holding mine hostage.

Dig the Triumph. I had a T100 I scramblered out. My nephew laid it down and it slid under a guard rail. I bought another one, it's getting heavily modified since I build custom bikes for a living.

I took my old motor to a buddies house, he's going to rebuild it and put it in his g-body el Camino.
