How easy  or difficult is it to fabricate the long brake line that goes 
down  the center ov the vehicle - it's a 66 Coupe ...mine does not look rusty,  
but I want to be on the safe side, just looking for some pointers -  
suggestions. 
Thanks

You will need to double flare the replacement tube at both ends. If yours  
is not bent or broken, just match the new tube to your old one. The 66 is 
1/4"  tubing -(The 65 was 3/16"). All of that said, this particular tube is 
the least  likely to have suffered on the outside, although the inside may be 
damaged due  to water in the brake fluid. Only at the very back is it 
subject to outside  influences. In what condition are the rest of the tubes?
