Could be a good car but fuel lines and brake pipes are a pain in the ass to replace! I remember replacing and joining brake pipes on the 2.2 GT I had. Was rather difficult and time consuming. Don't envy anyone who has to replace from front to rear. I bet it would be good for spares though! No doubt I'm gonna get loads of abuse for saying that!

easy..! LOL! as long as they are copper.....

found myself under a van...recently, vice mounted flaring tool in hand...trying (and managed it!) to flare stainless brake lines..or steel of some kind.. in situ.

NEVER AGAIN!..

take the fiiukiers off and start from scratch i'd say...

Bloody hell, you were brave tackling that! I've had the luxury of using a ramp, don't bother entertaining climbing underneath now unless it's an emergency. Yeah, taking them off completely and starting again is easier to work on!
