What size brake lines and fittings?

Post by C99roadster »

Hi everyone,
I have a 1968 1600 and want to replace my brake lines. What size brake lines and what size fittings should I be buying? Thank you in advance for the help!

I bought a complete set from these guys, all pre-bent. You can choose from stock steel or stainless.

Thanks for the recommendation but there are few areas that I'm going to have to bend myself for clearance issues.
