Tube Nuts

I bought a new project, it is a 1976 F-150 4x4 chassis with a 1969 body on it. The guy got off to a good start then had to move and only could take one project with him. The brakes and clutch weren't hooked up yet or the radiator hoses, power steering etc. He was trying to use the manual pedals/linkage and stuff so I don't think he had much experience with these specific vehicles. I have most of it put back together pretty easily (knock on wood) but one of the tube nuts/brake fittings for the master cylinder broke off the line. I have looked at all of the major auto parts stores and several good hardware stores here in Denver with no luck on finding new ones.

I did find some that fit the brake line diameter but wrong thread size and have not been able to find adapters. Any thoughts on where a guy could find some fittings in denver?
