  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

'66 Wildcat Rubber Brake Lines

Discussion in 'The whoa and the sway.' started by 71GSX455-4SPD, Apr 26, 2006.

    Hi-

    I'm wondering if someone could point me to a source for new rubber lines for a '66 'Cat. This is for the car that Yardley has found for me. He checked out the existing lines and said that look pretty good, but they are 40 years old and the cars been sitting for 7 or so years. Also it's a single circuit system, so one failure and no brakes at all.

    I checked the Inline Tube website and they don't list the '66 Wildcat. Classic Tube doesn't appear to have any application listed either. Anyone have a part number, a source, or a cross reference?

    Thanks.

    I bought trans cooler lines from inline tube for my '65 Wildcat. I couldn't find them on their website and a phone rep said they didn't sell them. But being that I have a Wildcat and no one EVER has parts for it, I always resort to looking up other cars that will cross over. Turns out their trans cooler lines for the Wildcat are listed under Electra/Wildcat. They have 'em and have them listed, but only under the Electra. Try looking up the Electra and see if the brake lines pop up.

    I found 'em, they're there under "66 Electra, Wildcat" just like the cooler lines. Which the cooler lines fit great by the way. The 2x4 fuel lines were a little off.
