Halz, this weekend the fuel lines on my beater busted and since we have plenty of brake lines available, i bent a few pieces of that for my fuel lines... Im not sure the price difference between high pressure fuel lines and brake lines, but a 6 foot length for me is only 9 bucks. You could do your car for under a 100 easy

I think the quarters in the old cuss can are gonna add up to more than the price of the lines... i'm sure i'll still manage to kink a few. i'm not gonna worry about the fuel lines just yet.... gonna bungy cord a 1 gallon tank somewhere to the front end with a rubber hose.... i just gotta see this thing roll on its own power.

Most of your tubing will be straight or minor bends, so it wouldnt be too hard. I was just waging 100$ plus work vs. 300 prebent +shipping and work...

I had an old English Ford that I picked up for a song back in the day, and I strapped a gas can to the front just to get it running. Well, the can rubbed on something and sprung a leak. I did get the engine started, but the gas blew up and burned the car to the ground.

how about using a flexible full line like the ones that were used on that Crate Camaro on Muscle Car on Powerblock?

Like a flex line all the way from the tank to the pump? I will probably end up using a flex line going from the pump to the carb because its just easier.
