Title: 57,58 Eldorado Brougham fuel Line routing.
Post by: Jameson on November 12, 2012, 11:12:24 AM
I once again ran into another snag on this restoration. For anyone that hasn't been up to date, A gentle and I have came into this resto after every last nut and bolt was taken apart.  We are at the point of routing new fuel line and does anyone out there have some ideas,note,advice,wisdom or pictures on helping doing this routing? I do have a 57 eldorado barritz sitting in the shop , would it be the same for that fuel line routing?
Thanks again for all the help in the past.

I think the routing should be very similar.  The Brougham line is mounted off the body, runs down the RH rocker and then hugs the inboard side of the tire well.  After looking for awhile, I can't seem to get any really good shots.

Here is what I have been able to find.

Rick Payton (Austin, Texas) has a 58 Brougham.  Have you spoken with him? He's listed in the Registry that just came out.
