The number 1 body crossmember on the driver's side has a retaining clip for the fuel and brake pipes.  I decided to weld it on today.  I tipped the body shell onto its side, got out with the old fuel and brake pipes, lined them up by hand, marked the place with chalk, and then wondered why I went to all the trouble when I could have just taken measurements from an "example" FC sitting not ten feet away in the carport . . .

. . . which I did, and confirmed that my chalk marks were in the right place.

And then, since the shell was on its side and the afternoon sun was shining gently down, I strip'n'cleaned a few weld seams on the underbody that I really should have primed about three years ago . . .

. . . and primed them.

Remember: if your Holden's not leaking oil, it doesn't have any.
