Best or cheapiest place to buy brake lines?

Last time I was under my 86 I noticed the brake line had some bad looking rust on it. A couple days ago it lost all brakes, front sump of the master cylinder went dry and the light came on so I got a brake leak. I'm thinking I need a new line but may be wheel cylinders. I haven't looked yet because it's been cold, rainy or snowy here. I may change the line anyways. The one I'm reffering to that looks bad is the front to rear line. I searched and found a couple places for 50 and $70 for stainless.

Anyone know of any cheaper or just a place that's really good to deal with and honest/honorable and keep their end of the deal?

I want just a standard line really, for a v6 5 speed 86 model sport coupe, front disc's rear drums, all power brakes. Just drop me a link or whatever. Thanks

Best and cheapest don't usually go together in the same sentence...that being said, look at Fine Lines or Inline Tube for a good quality replacement line

Thoose where the 2 places I found on a search. I'm looking for cheaper. I can buy the line and all fitting I need and bend up my own custom set for less then 50 bucks. That looks like what I'll have to do.

I had to recently replace the front to rear line on my 1993 Silverado and got new, preflared lines at Napa for around $20. I had to use 3 lines to make it work, they don't have one complete line. Check that out also.
