I am in the process of building a Nostalgia body on a Berrien Buggy tube chassis. Where do you run the brake line from the front to the back? Down the tunnel? Do I need to weld on some tabs?

I think simple rubber insulated clamps would suffice.

Great idea. Thank you for the reply. Do you have any idea where I might obtain these clamps?

That is how I did mine. I also welded 1/4" bolts to the frame to hold them. Here are a couple pics. If you follow my link at the bottom there are many Berrien chassis build photos. I went to great lengths to keep rattles to a minimum. Probably over kill.

BTW you can get them at any hardware store, but the best place is a flea market, or an automotive swap meet.





Also used them to hold e-brake tubes.

Thank you for the help and the photos.
