Hi there all, Just finished the brake lines on the 53. The stainless steel lines with braided ends certainly came out pretty good. I am happy with the result. It's a job that I wouldn't like to do for a living, even though I only helped with process. The brake guy is the real magician. Here's some pics for a looksie. Cheers All (Paul)

I need a set of break peddles on that side for my wife's car... Very nice truck

 

Looks good. I like how the lines follow the contour of the rear like that too.

 

Awesome keep us posted.

 

lookin sweet as always! keep it up!

 

Pretty work! I like that truck Aussie Man,the way you shaped the lines, work of art.

Did you guys catch the brake setup on the other side..Cool. Nice job!

 

I agree!!! It's the "little details" that set a nice, and great truck apart...

Aussie 53. Very sweet. I have a 50th anniversery myself. Is yours a original right hand drive? Like the 1959 Chevrolet 2 door in the movie, Mad Max. That made Mel a star. '53s RULE.

 

What did you pain your master cylinder with so the paint won't come off when the break fluid hits it?

 

Woodsmoke my 53 was originally left hand drive, converted it over to RHD by finding a wrecked cab from a Aussie truck, not many original RHD trucks down under. A guy I was talking to the other day who is mad about F100's 53-56 said he knows of about 75. The master cyclinder is a two pack black same as the chassis.

 

Good clean lookin install. I'm getting ready to tackle mine.
