FUEL/BRAKE LINE ROUTING, NEED SOME HELP!

Hi Everyone,

First off I want to say that this my first post but I been using this forum just about everyday for my project car, 2 years ago i bought an 86 Iroc, I have taken the whole thing apart and I am now in the process of rebuilding. My goal is to have it running by March and back on the road by next spring. I cant stress how helpful this forum has been. Now to my question:

I'm running new pre-bent fuel and brake lines, does anyone have any pics of the routing locations, things to stay away from, etc. If I coudl get pics of teh engine bay, how the lines are run near the steering column and then how everything mounts up through the tunnel and then near the rear it would be a HUGE help! I hate to keep scratching my new pain trying different configurations that end up now working out just right. Just to give you an idea of how the car is coming along i have attached a couple pics, how i got, how far i took it and then where im at now.

Thanks for all your help and suggestions!

Wow! I'm not the only one with that same 'garage'! I feel so much better!

Sorry - don't have anything for ya - me and the camera won't fit under my car (I got to lose some weight or get a smaller camera). But I was just so excited to see the same ShelterLogic garage!

Haha, yea that was temporary until i moved into my house and finally got a real garage, it did the job but i cant image working on the whole car if i had to in the winter, im up Chi-town, would get a bit cold outside.

Here's some better pics of where I'm at now....
