Mark: I recently purchased a seven piece set of steel brake lines for my 1939 Custom Imperial on eBay for less than $40.00 delivered. They advertise lines for newer chrys/imp cars. The lines are straight & need bent to shape. No small job with out experience! Try www.oldtimeparts.com or call Toll Free 1-888-399-7278. (Duluth, Mn.) Jim

to all, the front brake hoses on my 66 crown are rotted and in trying to seperate the hose from the brake line, the brake line end snapped off. i have new hoses, but my question is this; should i put the end screw back on and then try to reflair the end for a new connection or should i replace the brake line? this is the passenger front and travels under the block. It doesn't look very fun to replace what with all the turns it goes through. if i need to replace the line, who and where do i get one from? The driver side front is acting the same way,(not wanting to move or come loose). I have used liquid wrench, pb blast, and even heat. still a no go. looking for help and direction mark truman 66 crown (that someday will take to the road?!)
