64 disc brake swap brake lines

You'll probably have to move the brake hoses and brackets forward on the frame similar to the t-bird, unless you can find some hardware to change the direction of the brake hose out of the caliper.

If you have not done brake lines before, you'll need a tool to bend and a tool to cut the brake lines, and also a flaring tool, and some brake line. I got these from Summit, but they are easily found elsewhere.

The coat hanger idea is especially useful. It is amazingly easy to bend a brake line the exact opposite way you intend to. You'll also have to bench bleed the master cylinder...
