Any of the hoses I have seen like that had a really faint stripe. Probably ought to tone those down on yours, or like Jeff says, you'll be "that guy" in this case, the one with the yellow stripe radiator hose! <img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Yeah, probably so...on both accounts. I may be "that guy" on some other things too. <img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Brant,
Thanks for the continual posting of the pics. It makes the reader feel like he's part of the resto. I've got to get me a pit in my garage.

and the Z-bar with the rod to the clutch lever.
i don't see a return spring tho.
how do you keep the clutch release lever
pulled forward?

Parts are still being added. It's just not there yet in these particular pictures. I don't think the fan shroud was on when these pictures were taken either.

attach to the area forward of the lower Z-bar

Looking good!
Does VM have any plans to find a way to reproduce the early square corner step plates?

Thanks.
The current manufacturer and I actually did look into this. The current tooling does not allow just a modification in order to make these as we thought it may. There is just not enough material on the other step plates to make the square ends.
At this time, new tooling just did not work out to be economically feasible.
