Pick up a set of copper/nickel brake pipes from Moss. I put them in my
Midget. They won't rust, and they are easily bendable by hand. Each pipe is
the correct length and has the correct fittings for your car.
You can pick up a cheep brake tubing bender at any auto parts store if you
want nice round corners.
Whatever you do, don't mess around with brakes and try to save money!
Safety Fast!
