Update time.

This project has sat for a long time and I was lucky to get a day to work on it once every 2-3 months. I finally said F&@$ it and put every thing else on hold.

I'll post stages of progress later but thought I'd share it's current state. I am now driving it and falling in love all over again.

I actually did figure it out. I ordered a stock 1998 S10 line and then cut it apart. I then took the fittings that came out or either end and pressed them into a ssb hose with teflon core. It was a nice tight fit and I finished it with a couple of crimp clamps.

I'm half way through building a rear bumper for it. Decided to go with 1/8 steel plate and spent half a day cutting out various shapes from cardboard until i liked the look then transferred them to the steel. At the moment it's just tacked together just in case I want to change the design.
