Not being suggestive, but simply wondering: isn't the hard line on the passenger side supposed to go under the frame rail? I started routing mine the same way yours was but looking at it and seeing how the driver's side went I went ahead and routed it under the rail . . .

I don't think that's always the case. For some reason, when I orded my new lines, the guy at inline tube asked me if I wanted to go under the frame rail or through the access door. I don't know what the reasons (or situations) are where you go under vs. through. Maybe it's a disc vs. drum thing? 

[terrible one]

Hmm yeah I didn't think of disc vs. drum. I went disc BTW. Charge-it, are you running drums or discs up front?

[charge-it]

As the pics show, I`m running 11" drums all around. The passenger front brake line is 100% correct. Some ran under the frame rail, others ran over the frame rail. I don`t why there were two different styles of front passenger brake lines. I relaced all of my brake lines with lines from Fine Lines and ordered exactly what was on the cat when I took it apart. My friends 68 Coronet has the same brake line set up and his are all original. His car is a factory front disc brake set-up.

Wow, fantastic work!  Looks great.  Thanks for all the pic's.


My 69 has disk and the lines were original before I changed them and the pass side went through the access door.  There's even a split in the rubber cover for it.

yeah thought that was odd two different right side lines , mine was original manual drums & went through the inner fender access hole also ,
 
nice work Chargit ...where did you get your master cylinder from ..or was it the original rebuilt  the bottom looks different 

[73TXRallye440]

looking good bud.

Hmmm I got my lines from Fine Lines as well. I didn't have any old ones on my car to compare to so I guess I'll never know what I had originally. Oh well! Interesting that there are two different lines though.

Car looks awesome!

The master cylinder came from Bill Rolik at Bill Rolik enterprises. Its a brand new master cylinder, not a rebuilt. It`s not 100% like an original or NOS unit, but it`s close enough for me.

thanks for the info Dude appreciated  .. close enough for me also , prefure the bolt on tops   

[charge-it]

The bolt on cap and wing shaped bracket came from PG classics and is a reproduction part as well. Mike at BE&A carries them. The new midland style booster was purchased through ebay and from what I`ve heard is no longer in production. I bought it because it was cheaper than send my original out for a rebuild. If I had to do it over, I would send out my original to be rebuilt because the vacuum check valve is a little different in diameter causing an issue with the size of the vacuum hose.

On my 68 thats all original and has been off the road since 1980 has the brack line going on the under rail- hope it helps
