Question Brake lines - Can you still get them?

Im at the stage now i need to put in my brake lines, rather than making them all up i would ideally like to buy them. I see that some guy on fleabay is selling them but seams a little pricey. The only one i need to make up is to run up the ladder chasis of the P100. All the rest can be std sierra.

Any ideas guys? Cheers

the problem I would have with them pre made is that in the factory the lines are one of the first things to be fitted and as such you would need the subframes etc out to fit them they would be grand if that was the case but if you were just replacing lines it would make a big job out of a small one

The pick-up is all on mock-up running gear so its not a problem in my case.

I tried to get some for my RS2000, the Guy at Fords said brake pipes were never available to buy there was only ever the cooper ones from them
