I am in the process of making my 79 engine compartment clean and smooth looking and I wanted to replace all my lines and calbes and such with Stainless Steel. Is there any place that I can pick up these cables and stuff, or am i gonna have some of them custom made?

For the brakes, Jegs and probably Summit. I understand that "Fine Lines" products are poor quality, I've never used them. If your fuel line is intact and in good shape you could polish that out yourself and coat it.

Jegs and Summit sell the braded stainless steel lines and fittings to convert even the vacuum lines to stainless steel. I have some stainless steel Radiator Hoses for my 80 and now they make the Stainless steel Heater Hoses too. I have to say that they are expensive but you'll probably get rid of the vehicle before you have to replace one.
