OK that was fun. You have to pull the steering shaft out to make the groove appear.

Ive been waiting to put on a NOS turn signal switch.

MOMO 3503 hub. Had to grind off about an 1/8th from the cancellator fingers, but other than that, no problema. New horn button and a new look. Feels great. Thanks JT.

The rusty fuel caused the following cascade of events:
Pulling the tank and to the shop for boil out.
.

Fuel filler neck redo... And a new sending unit to go with...

Redone tank straps...
With new J hooks.....

Learning to make fuel lines from the spares off a 66. (Thanks Keith) Mine were butchered when PO put in an electric fuel pump which I had to remount onto a section of frame close to the tank and below tank level. I really enjoyed making the lines. I had to practice, but one can get very good at the flares.

Since the in line was my first attempt I shrank wrapped it to smooth the bending process and it did help. It copper/nickel line. I'll be dead before it rusts. It is a temporary fix for now.

Back together with the sending unit into a brand new Curtis harness (one of the yellow/black. the red/red is a new Curtis reverse harness) which hooks into a new Curtis harness...

Which finally allowed me to put on my original gas cap....

Keith donated the life saver feed tube that goes through the trunk floor...

Then while the bumper was off so I could do this mock up....

I noticed this... More original 665 yellow. Good chips for later. Thanks again to Keith, Curtis, and JT.

Great update! Can you post some more pics of the electric fuel pump? (you can text them to me if you want)
