my 68 AMX has a sight glass built into the high-pressure hose were it connects to the receiver/drier.

Thanks. I have all the original parts to my 68 AMX but that was missing. Mine is a project yet all black go pac no stripes. Could you post a pic of yours it looks the same but shiny

Unless you get your receiver/drier rebuilt, you will likely go with a replacement which will probably have a sight glass on the top.

That looks great! Yes most likely aftermarket. I called Classic yesterday and they are moving their operation and now have a list to get on for restoration service and they will contact you when they are ready.
