buy the repro set. used fittings will not do you any good, unless you find new ferrules to use with the old fittings. new loose fittings are not available retail.

You may be able to find some fittings at Inline Tube (www.inlinetube.com) or Classic Tube (www.classictube). However, since these firms specialize in brake and fuel lines (and fittings), it would depend on if they have the proper size and threads that would work for the convertible lines. Give them a call.

If you do find a specific source for these convertible top lines and fittings, please post that information -- I am interested too.

www.opgi.com and www.nationalpartsdepot.com carry a conv line kit. For NPD, look it up in their Chevelle catalog
