5/8" hose. I also added a 90 Deg elbow Here is a few pictures mounted to my bracket.

try Napa 935813. $17.50 I had to drill a hole to mount to the bracket on my 78 but it is the correct direction for the cable control

Dryer for my 78 was VTA-07321-VUC at Summit Expansion Valve 38608 at 4 Seasons

When I replaced my hog troughs, even though they were galvanized, I used KBS Rust Blast and then Rust Seal inside and out. I then used the KBS Blacktop on the outside surfaces. Since I also was doing a frame off, I also used the Rust Blast, Rust Seal and Blactop on the frame. The Rust Blast is a Phosphoric acid the neutralizes any rust the sand blasting missed. As a suggestion, I used the Satin finish for the Rust Seal and the Gloss for the Top Coat so I could see if I had missed areas when applying the top coat. KBS also has a product called Cavity Coater. It comes with a 36" flexible tube and 360 degree tip in an Aerosol can. You can use inside the frame. I actually think the KBS products are better than the POR 15 products, but that is my opinion.

yes, the Summit part I listed fit the hoses on my 78. Since it is a 'Dryer', It should not be opened up until you are ready to actually recharge the system. When I took the the caps off the fittings, it actually 'hissed' which I assume was a vacuum on the part.

I used VTA-07321-vvc from Summit. It does not have the low pressure switch output but does have a sight glass Of course now you will need to completely evacuate and clean the system before a recharge

I think those are your seat belt mountings. The plates should be threaded or have nuts welded to them

Dave, I made one in Brushed Nickel. Also did the center console inlays. I got the brushed nickel, probably about 18ga, from Menards. It is used for bottom door kick panels. The worst part for me was getting the bend right.

If it is connected to a potted box, Turn on your wipers and see if it acts as a variable speed for them. I have one that does that.

If you haven't found one yet, send me a message. I have a spare

Are you looking for the black and silver stick-on Avanti emblem? I might have a couple. Let me know if still interested.

John, I have 3 rear bumpers. one is a 63/64 NOS with no holes drilled in it yet. The other 2, I think are the 70's bumpers, but would need re-plating or might be candidates for painting. I am just outside Chicago.

thanks everybody for comments. I have since found out that this control valve will not work without modifications because of the attachment of the Pittman arm. The car is a just completed frame off restoration where all front end parts were replaced including the kingpin bearings and all bushing, springs and shocks. the tire are brand new and balanced. I have checked the steering column RAG joint and it is in good shape. I did rebuild the control valve with the kit available from SI.. The excessive slop is when I am driving but the rest of the ride is smooth with no shimmy or drift. Actually the rest of the ride is phenominal I like IndyJimW suggestion and will see if the slop shows up there. I have checked the steering play down to the steering box and all seemed good.
