  • Replacing Fuel Lines

    Please provide SPECIFIC Studebaker/other vendors that you have had success with that deal in replacement, pre-bent, stainless fuel lines from tank to flex hoses for my 62 GT Hawk with drum brakes.

      Several magazines have ads from folks that have Ford, GM, & MPOAR pre-bent lines, but none for us. They all say "carefully remove your old ones and send them to us and we will make new ones". Good Luck. Before I retired, I did purchase SS tubing and bend oil lines for Solar Turbine Engine remote test panels. The biggest problem with that is a flairing set to use on stainless... You will wreck most of them (even ones made for stainless)doing your first flange!
      I have coated steel lines that I bent up on my '53. This tubing comes in varied lengths at your local FLAPS and I feel it will be around stopping the Stude long after I bite the dust.

        I bought a complete set of brake and fuel lines from Classic Tube in Lancaster, NY (a suburb of Buffalo, as you know)...I still have them in the box awaiting reassembly of my frame, etc....but, I did remove them and they all looked correct...give them a call...I would not have ordered if I didn't feel confident in their work. Please let me know what you think...

            PeterHawk, suggest talking to Tom Gavin (800.882.3711) at Classic Tube in Lancaster, NY.

            BUT ...before you do, dig up all the part number tubes you need as their computerized bender files are set up by STUDEBAKER Part Numbers!!! Not sure about a '62 GT Hawk, but they did some really nice brake and fuel lines for a '56 GH.

              Classic did a nice job on my Avanti. They fit like a glove. Inline can also do Stude tubes. there are some threads in the archive about this.
