Re: my new 1963 GMC Suburban.........
the work looks really good but am also confused by the use of the copper brake lines; are they of an acceptable alloy?

Re: my new 1963 GMC Suburban.........
I am kinda confused also!
Everything looks sooooo top-notch!...With the exception of the brake lines.
I am hoping that what I am seeing is a copper-coated STEEL line, although I don't know of any suppliers.
If they are copper lines, they will NEVER hold up to the pressures exerted with a firm stop.
I hate to see you risk all of your work on something so inferior...
You have some of the best brakes on the market, why would you cheap-out on brake lines?
