<p>Hi Ira,<br>
</p>
Pipe bending is an art that I haven't really mastered, but I've done
OK by pulling the old line, and using a brake pipe bending tool to
replicate--or possibly improve--the original pipe routing. Steel
brake line is cheap, so buy extra to practice with--it will probably
take a couple tries to get it right--and switch to stainless or
cunifer if you prefer after you get the hang of it. Oh, and don't
forget to put the fittings on before you flare the ends; it's
painful to get a couple flares just right then realize there are no
fittings (someone told me that once). I think getting good flares
is even trickier than bending.<br>
<br>
Based on the condition of that one line, I wouldn't trust any of the
other brake lines in the car.<br>
<br>

<div dir="auto">Finally getting to work on the 67 B I bought for
my wife. Seller told me a metal brake line was cracked and
