I recall purchasing a braided stainless steel brake line kit for a 72-76 Camaro, which would normally be used to replace the two front rubber lines and the one rear rubber line. I didn't need the rear one as the one provided by ERA was already braided stainless steel.

I used the pads provided with the kit, but don't recall if they were graphite or semi-metalic. I believe I have semi-metalic on now.

I am trying to remember where I picked up my brake reservoirs and brackets. I'll try to dig through my Cobra files for the source.

The Girling tin cans look original, but they leak badly around the top cap (even when properly filled) and then the paint peels and the cans rust. I took my originals down to get chromed but the cleaning process bent the thin cans. The aluminum reservoirs I bought look very nice, though they may not be for the "purist".
