Has anyone ever done business with them? They sell a pre-bent disc brake conversion line kit that I'm interested in.

I've never bent lines before,and I do like to learn how to do new things. This seems like a pretty good thing to me though.

Re: Resto-Modtechnology

I've never heard of or had dealings with them but it looks like a pretty good kit. If you want to learn just find a buddy that knows how and just get a line bender and enough straight line to achieve what you want. It's pretty simple to do, you just have to have clean, uncrimped bends to allow flow and have the bends in the right spot so that it fits and runs right to the spot.

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire.Custom Classic Trucks

10-4 on that. I would love to try doing that some time. I'm just needing to get something going pretty quick. I should've done this months ago when nothing was going on,but car show season and cruise night season has snuck up on me. My work schedule has changed too. I just need to be able to slap something on and go.

Yeah I know what you mean. I did notice that it said that 63-66 power lines were discontinued or something along those lines. I picked up all my line from Napa and had them bent/installed in about 2 hours. Though the cost was around $40 altogether.
