Im not sure where to attach the front flexy brake hoses to on the chassy...

Has anyone got any suggestions and or measurements from a reference? should I use the braket and small length of copper pipe that came on the cortina calipers?

hello shades !

I've gone for the pipe connection just behind the rear of the wishbone. I've left it unsupported at the moment, I'll wait until body goes on the see if a small bracket is needed to support it . Have a look at my archive. I think there's something to illustrate this.

Thanks,

Think i'll end up siticking them in the same place and leave them hanging in air till the body is fitted.

I've got floor mounted pedals and need to fit a 't' somewhere which so far has amounted to me clamping it in about 10 places and running old bits of wire inplace of copper held in place with duct tape...
