Well...someone has to say it...so...Looks pretty cool!      

 Thank you kind sir

I used Aeroquip EZ clip hose and fittings. The hose is smaller, more flexible, and assembles with hand tools.

P.S. Joe everything you do is "spot-on".

Thank you Lynn, much appreciated!

The -8 straight fitting I've been waiting for, finally came in today so I was able to finish the AC lines:







Now I just need to find the time to get back to finishing the wiring....

just a tip.......before charging the system, check the shraeder valves in the fill fittings to make sure they are tight. When I put my system together, I wrongfully assumed the fittings I got with the valves installed would be tight. They were not. Took forever to find that leak because the caps were minimizing the bleed out.

Thanks Rich, I'll probably pull a vacuum first to make sure all my connections are good.

I had forgotten about the vacumn leak test, I did do that too.

Funny thing, the vacuum will check OK but the system will still leak.  Seems like the suction pulls the valve closed, put gas in and they loose their grip.....don't ask me how I know this......yes, they had about a quarter to one third turn to seat properly.

Gee thanks! I wished I would have known that (or thought about it) a few years ago....

Just an update, I haven't touched my car since my last post, been building an addition on my garage and working on the '62 Corvette.

Here's some pics of the Vette:

Looks like you left plenty of room for more additions...

Added another 10' x 40', that's the last one, I'm done.

Just curious what the extra space will be used for.
