Looking for a company who might be able to make these odd brake
hoses for my Honda Pickup project....

Preferably not those stainless steel braided type, I would prefer
just plain old black rubber if poss.....

The fittings are strange, but all the brake tube nuts are M10 x 1.25mm pitch
and use the double flare on the pipe.



Thanks Steve

with them?

They have an excellent search facility on their site for classic cars, I just searched Austin A55 MK1 successfully so Richards in luck....

Yes. I have used them to supply hoses. No problems with them. Copied the originals exactly. Previously known as Brovex Nelson. I would give them a call.

We have used Classic Spares down in Kenton, Devon for getting pipes re-made. The chap to deal with was called Ian Wonnacott if I recall correctly.
