right but what are they called and how many do I buy. They don’t come in a kit like the break lines do. I’m new to this and confused by this one. Everything else has been pretty straight forward.

New at this
It’s a 1977, I need to know what they are called, and how many to buy. As it stands right now I have file lines running down both sides of the frame. But that’s about the extent of my knowledge on this subject.

The line(s) on the passenger side are the fuel supply, and if there is a second one it is the return line.
You should be able to see the lines attach at the fuel pump to verify if you have two lines
The drivers side line is the vapor line that runs up to the charcoal canister

FWIW: fuel and tranny cooler lines for AT are on the passenger's side of the frame. Brake and fuel vapor lines are on the driver's side.

Thank you
This was a forced frame up build. I was looking for a project car I could learn on when I bought this one. The previous owner neglected to tell me that it had been in an accident and the frame was bent so I had to buy a new frame... I am definitely learning now.
