Pay a visit to your local Sears & Roebuck tools department. Craftsman offers a good selection of line wrenches in the small sizes used on brake fittings. If you don't use a line wrench, you'll round off the corners and have to resort to a vice grip to get the nut off, and frequently destroy it in the process. Try a little heat, Liquid Wrench, and tap on it a little to break it free. These steel fittings tend to rust in place. Get both english and metric sizes for working on Fords. As stated above, be especially careful with that torch around fiberglass. It will ignite, and burn.
