Default Interior vacuum line pic

Trying to figure out how the vacuum line is routed from the firewall fitting until it turns up the windshield stanction. Any pictures would be helpful show bends and routing.

Thanks!
King

The photo shows the vacuum line in my Victoria. I imagine that its routing is the same or similar in a straight windshield car such as your Fordor.

According to the Restoration Guidelines, you steel tube should be like Phil's coupe above. From the end of the steel tubing a rubber line went to the wiper. See Pg. 20-14 revised 2016 of the Restoration Guidelines.

The SW sedans and Cabriolet tubing was one piece from the fire wall to just to the right of the wiper.
