1964c10, there is nothing wrong with the flares in the pictures!! They will crush a little bit when tightened. Move forward!! You may have a fitting or two that wants to be fussy, when you put fluid in the brake system. I would suggest that you invest in a couple of line wrenches to tighten the nuts. Keeps from rounding the nut off when yoy tighten the S^&* out of the leakers. GOOD JOB!!
