[DeTomaso] Stainless V Non-stainless brake lines

[mark skwarek]

 I've found copper/.nickel brake line tubing very easy to work  with. Doesn't corrode and is easy to bend.

If you want stainless, buy a pre-bent kit from a Pantera vendor, or Classic Tube. If you are going the DIY route do yourself a favor and stick with steel…..
