  Hello,
I looking to purchase pre-bent brake lines for a 40 Ford. After market companies like C&G and MACs sell lines that are pre-cut with nuts attached. These lines would need to be bent for your application. I was trying to avoid the additional cost and time to purchase the appropriate fabrication tools to complete the job. Any advice would be of great help.

  Classic Tube in Lancaster New York makes an excellent product. It has been awhile already but in 2001 I was restoring a 1939 Ford and contacted them about brake lines.They had a program for correct bends for a 39 which would be the same for a 1940,all double flared and with correct bends and lengths,fit up perfect. Not original but they offerered me a stainless steel upgrade for $25.00 more and I went that route,the spring guards were included and in proper place and in stainless. The price for all pieces was $150.00 total and a friend of mine recently bought the same in stainless and was not much more than I paid 11 years ago. Very good company to deal with.
