If you aren't going to remove the body, correct routing is very difficult with one piece lines. If it doesn't hazve to look absolutely correct, meaning couplers are OK, get 5' lengths (or shorter as needed) of pre-made lines and brass couplers from your local parts house. You can probably place most of the couplers in "discreet" locations. there won't be many of them, as the lines are about 12' long.

You have a 'return' line? Mine (72 CS) just has a main 3/8" fuel line and a 5/16" 'vapor' line. I got mine from ILT, and it seems ok so far (tight fit with rubber hose though where it splits into the frame at the front).

I also got a complete OEM steel brake line set from them, but don't need it, as I went S/S instead.
