Hi,

I own a 1971 Dodge Demon that needs a new brake line. Can anyone recommend a garage in the Maplewood area that specializes in older cars?

Thanks,

Stuart

Try Toomies on Baker Street. They usually have several old cars they are working on. Anybody see the 1952-4 Chevy parked there?

I brought my 'regular' car into Nelson's, and confirmed that he works on older cars as well (I've got an old convertible that occasionally needs work).

My husband has brought his 55 Chevy Bel Air to Toomies and been quite pleased.

A brake line for a 71' Mopar product might have to be fabricated. Hopefully you have not removed it, you'll probably need it as a template for the new line , which would be built out of stock tubing . Have a talk with Dave @ Nelson's .
