I am late to comment on this but since none of us were around in 29 who's to say that the rigid line didn't cause problems back then? I would think that eventually it would crack at one of the fittings from the vibration.

Chet,
I agree, and will try it with copper.
I had purchased a stainless steel alloy line that was supposed to be easy to bend, but I think it is still too stiff. Not sure what was done originally.

John, I can't verify the exact configuration of the fuel line, but I believe you had the right idea with the strain relief loop.  Unfortunately using a stainless steel line might be your problem.  Stainless is to stiff. Same setup with a copper alloy line may work better.

My 2 cents

Does anyone know how the line from the Kingston vacuum fuel pump to the carb was shaped?  I put in a stainless steel line with a loop in it to allow for some vibration, but the vibration still caused the fitting on the fuel pump to loosen. I have used a modern flexible fuel line successfully for years, but I know that was not used originally, but that a rigid metal line was used.  Given that the engine vibrates some, how was that line shaped and connected to prevent the firings from getting loose?

Good job.
I usually add a little water at the start of the driving season and let it discard what it doesn't need. Never had an issue with over heating.

I have been a little worried ever since I put the original honeycomb radiator in as to how it would do in the heat. I have added water several times and it spit some out when it expanded. This time I just made sure I could see water and left it alone. It didn't loose a drop and there was no steam. I am crossing that concern off the list!

Looking good!  Parades are tough on the old girls, especially in the heat, but looks like she had no trouble at all.

Great showing .

It was almost 100 degrees and the old girl did good!
