TRANNY LINES?

Hello All, I wanted to check back in to get some advice on my tranny lines. i recently pulled my Jetaway and want to kee the car original. I am having the Tranny overhauled, however while trying to get the lines off i had to cut them because of rust. Here is my dilemma what should i do? Hard Lines, Steel Braided or 3/8 inch 3000psi hydraulic hose? Has anyone ever used the latter? I am a newbie and am learning as I go. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thnx

It will be hard to keep the car original if you use braided stainless or rubber hoses...

Use hard lines. Its not that difficult to install. Just buy the tubbing and a tube bender. Keep the old ones as models for the bends
