Hi Mo,welcome from Scotland.
Sounds like you have a plan,10 years sounds a lot but then I realised i've got 7 in mine!
Re: The brake lines,I understand why you want to do it and I think it's do-able.
Personally I prefer to be able to see the condition of critical parts.Especially brake components.
I would forego form over function in this instance.JMO.
Just a heads up Mo,as not to incur the wrath of the Mods,we should keep these type of Q&A's to the relative forums.
See you around.
Jock.
