I had a "mushy" brake pedal and noticed brake fluid on my wheels (both rear). 1973 Pantera L
There is moisture (brake fluid) where the flex line meets the rear caliper.
What is the "normal" failure mode (fitting, gasket, O-ring, etc...) at this joint and what is the fix?
I have a great local hot rod shop that does stainless steel custom...what measurements/standard would they need to get the right length and compatible fitting?
Do I REALLY need a special wrench to do this?
Thanks,
Tom

Subject: Headliner replacement
Alright Ladies and Gentlemen (and Mad Dog),
A few years ago I replaced my headliner with a "foam backed felt/fabric" specifically made for headliner material and glued it up with 3M 777. The foam backing has started to fail and I'm looking for the next generation material.
I do like the sound deadening and protection that a little foam offers to the paperthin metal making up the ceiling/roof.
Any suggestions?
