No-one does copper?

Copper does not pass ADR, as it has a higher fatigue rate than mild bundy or stainless.

Didn't know that. Thats why I use this forum!

What would OE hard lines on an Oval come as? Mild steel? Would it be wise to paint for protection if I renew them?

You can get mild bundy tube as a zinc coat or an E coat. The zinc coat looks more original. The E (electro) coat is a green finish and is what newer cars for the last 20 years or so have been using. The zinc coat will protect for corrosion quite sufficiently.

Go VVDS & by the complete set, works out roughly the same as the one big line 馃檪
