71 Duster 360 (new project)

thought I was going to have all the fuel lines done today...but..had several moments of stupidity ...I had several pieces of what i thought was #6 hose for going from regulator to carb...and for the transmission to cooler...

well..after trying to get a #6 fitting on what i thought was a #6 hose...I realize the hose was a #8.....well...now waiting for an order of #6 hose..plus a couple more fittings.....well...now i know i got some extra #8 hose....LOL

got a great tool i bought years ago that i saw at the sema show..

makes putting hose ends on steel braided simple....except went you try to put #8 hose on a #6 fitting..that was the clue something was wrong...

ran battery cable from where the master cut off switch is going to be to front of car...gotta wait until there is a starter there to put the lug on the cable....had to go get a 3/4 inch hole saw to cut hole for master switch..

well....found my test wires for the msd...test fired the ignition today....it was zapping the concrete floor...

My daughter and I realize this car is not going to be done for MATs...but will be ready easily for bracket racing season which starts late in April..beside she has never raced..and this car will need a couple test n tunes to work the bugs out it....as every car has.
