We have space for it and it was paid for a long time ago. Would I drive it cross country, probably not since we have other vehicles that are better suited, but I am sure it could.
Would I spend $5k in repairs, no but a grand or two wtihout a doubt. Though here in the upper midwest it has a fender that was replaced after meeting a deer at speed and the fender is rusting while all the OEM stuff is in good shape.
To the OP, I would do the lines. To do them yourself or pay someone is up to you, I don't know how much free time or disposable income you have. I have neither but would pay to have it done if it were mine.

Fancy??? A $1,700 GM crate engine and a home brewed throttle body FI system adapted from a 6 cylinder El Camino. I even got 30 bucks for my old 305 V8 that wore out after 300,000 miles.
