morning, i am in sydney and i am doing a front brake conversion on my van, the brake hoses i had made by a brake shop in penrith, they cost me $50 aus each. had a banjo fitting one end a straight fitting the other. if you are finding it hard to get hoses this may help, i am sure that there must be a brake shop in aukland that can do it.

Forgot to add some pics of one of the Escorts that was the crucial part of this rally team in the late 70's and early 80's....
Sorry about the poor quality...

Cheers, taking much longer than i planned but i'm really chuffed how it's turning out, btw the wheels on the van at the moment are only slave wheels.... The proper wheels should be arriving from blighty in 4 weeks hopefully....

Terrific job there!! Enjoyed reading it. How does the power steering hold up? Is it a big improvement?
