63 Avanti Brake Lines

[avantinet]

I just replaced the vacuum booster and master cylinder on my 63. It looks like the brake lines that run from the frame to the caliper in the front need replacement. Is there a replacement for the Wagner line that I can get from NAPA or one of the other parts stores?

They wont have the actual prebent piece, but its a standard inverted flare. 3/8 if memory serves. You

are best to remove the old piece, then measure it, and buy a piece a similar length. You might have to

go a little longer then factory. Also, if the front needs replacement, chances are the line to the rear is

also in sorry shape. Make sure you inspect the rubber hose from the frame to axle. Mine was worn in

a BAD way .. and was close to leaking.
