Mike,  I assume the fitting will be the same for a BT7, in which case =
put me down for a set too.

Thanks for the offer,

I have found that one of the first things that has started to show =
evidence of corrosion on my restored BN1 are the brake lines and their =
associated flare nuts.

I suspect that the plating on these lines is the culprit in that it is =
very thin and easily damaged.

I'm contemplating doing a run of stainless steel flare nuts, both male =
and female, to use with the stainless steel brake tubing that I have =
purchased.=20

Before doing the run I'm trying to gauge if there would be any interest =
from people doing restorations in purchasing stainless flare nuts.=20

Depending upon quantities these would cost between $3 & $5 each  say =
around $40 - $ 60 per car set.=20

At this stage the larger nuts for the master cylinder supply pipes are =
not being considered because of cost, the material is expensive.

Please let me know if these would be of interest to you. No commitment =
at this stage.
