I cannot answer that one 100% accurately. There are lines that have been replaced, but I do not know if all of them have been replaced. But most of the emissions lines havent really been. 

 

I did drop the tank and inspected everything. Looks to all be in great shape minus the sending unit which sucks a little bit but mostly the ground wire thats soldered to the unit is showing its age. I did figure out why I was running out of fuel, the sock basically fell apart entirely. So a new one was put in.

 

Now I need to watch the sender as it acted up on me on my way home. But I think I might need a new float for the unit.

Took the eagle to the orphan show. Absolutely bonkers how many studebakers and Hudson’s were there. 6 AMCs including myself were there. Two jeeps. A thrashed SJ and a CJ and 2 Willy’s trucks. 
There was three wagonaires too so now I’ve seen 4 of those in my life. 

Then this gem showed up and I’m pretty sure we all lost first place lol

 

Then I stopped off at the Glendale mural
