[Healeys] Pre-bent brake lines (cupro-nickel)

[P.M. Pollock]

Last year I did a full brake system rebuild from scratch for my wife's splendid 
little '69 Karmann Ghia (her first car), using cupro-nicklel lines of the same 
specs as those in the link.  A delight to work with and not expensive:  one $40 
25' coil did the whole car.  It does work harden so it pays to do trials of the 
more extreme bends first using heavy copper wire- or get two coils.  When I 
tackle the Healey I'll likely use John's linked source (flairs are a pain) but 
with a trial coil.   Tubing:

Thanks to John for the made-up set source.
