furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Probably nothing more than a bit cut off some plastic water pipe. What a great money maker...

Great idea in true LCB style, but I can't think of any water pipe that has that sort of wall thickness, if anyone has any suggestions on that
route, I'd be happy to hear them

Have to agree, this was my first thought too...
Get some plastic pipe/rubber hose and cut bits off to size.
It's the kind of thing I used to pocket when wandering around my old local scrapyard (long since closed).

Possibly OK out of sight under the scuttle, but not above!

Those wheel boxes were fitted to a lot of cars in the sixties, originals were chromed metal then came the black plastic ones, they were always moulded
not just cut off water pipe.
