Hiya folks.

1953 Chevrolet 3100 series(half ton) pickup

I am trying to replace all of the brake lines as I had a rupture last year, I have all of the lines removed, finally.

I had to take the MC off the truck in order to get this brake line loose.

I have questions about the line that goes into the back of the brake master cylinder, it has a thread on it, then it passes through the brass piece on there.

Can I buy a new brake line with this thread on it? I've never seen a brake line quite like this before, so I'm guessing the parts store people will be equally confused.

Any help on terminology or a parts source is appreciated, thank you.
