Hi all,
Does anyone know the correct size of brake pipe fitting to go into the connector on the rear wheel cylinders?
Thanks in advance, Jeff

Jeff - dunno about the brake pipe ends - they are NOt the usual 3/8" unf - guessing if I say 3/8" Whitworth ?? You may want to sniff around this car

They are either BSF or UNF, a mixture of both is used on the car. The front wheel cylinders are different to the rest of the car, but cant remember which is which. Try phoning ESM or Charlie Ware's.

UNF is the standard brake pipe fitting on the front + m/cylinder (and all over most cars of the era) - it's just the back axle that has the odd size.
