I've been reading Practical Classics again (there is a roadster picture in the Oct issue - kind of hard to find!). They tout the virtues of copper brake lines "to prevent corrosion". Seems like steel

The short answer is... when you can poke your fingers through major structural pieces. I dragged my '67.5 2000 down from Canada - it turned out to be much worse than I could have imagined. The cowl

How hard is it to bend your own brake lines? The brake lines on my 1500 look like they were mangled by a gorilla. I have to replace the master cylinder and the only thing I can get is from a 411, wit

I went ahead and got the tools to bend and flare brake lines for my 1500. It turned out to be fairly easy, although bending the lines is a real 3D puzzle. Took me a few times to get things going the

So Tom, Is the higher-priced premium really needed? I always use it in my cars - a 1500, and a Miata with the timing advanced. And it "feels" better, but since San Francisco has the highest gas price

Datsuns were made by Nissan. The story goes that to prevent loss of face for Nissan if sales outside of Japan didn't fare well, the Datsun name was used. The name itself goes back to DAT, formed by M
