Re: (1959) fifty niner gmc all orginal survivor first time mods

sorry we have been low on upday=tes.
progress is happening.
a bit hard to show in photos.
but here is a try.
full flow hydro fittings for power steering.
pretty stiff but will not collapse and matches the marine coolant lines.
anyway here are pics.
oh the giant aluminum knock off air cleaner hold is for my 69. i just wanted to see how it looked on rusty.
