Stop in for a cup of coffee

So, what do you guys do when it comes to brake lines, do you buy original steel lines, pre-cut and bent and everything, or do you buy the same in stainless steel, or do you buy copper which is soooooooooo easy to bend yourself, or do you buy copper-nickel ?

Personally, I have only redone one entire car, and that was my first 1965 Dodge Dart station wagon. It got new lines in copper, and I double flanged all the ends myself.

And I see something I have never seen before. Some are copper nickel, and some are nickel copper.... what is the difference ?

You have to be careful of full copper lines... Copper work hardens with vibration and is known to crack...

I would go with steel.... Stainless steel can be difficult to double flare...
