Does anyone know any companies that sell the rubber brake line from the axle lines to the hardline that runs along the framerail. If no company in particular makes them... what are some donor vehicles , hopefully newer(easier to find, cheaper) that would be a swap into a 71 chevelle. Could i get a line from Russell, if so what are the exact fittings i would need to get ?

If you're talking rear, you ought to be able to either bend your own 3/16" hardline or pick up some braided lines (#3). Our local circle track speed shop has pre-made braided lines in all lengths. You'd need a 3/16" flare to AN adapter for each end (junction block and brake cylinder) I think. You can call Smiley's in Houston at 972.289.7223.

I just re-read my non-responsive post! Let me try again.
Any autoparts should carry them, although I bought one for my '72 at Pep Boys and it was too short. I think I got the other at O'Rielly. Make sure the one you get is at least as long as the line you take off. Pay attention to the junction block end as well. Of the two I bought, one was square and the other rounded. The square one I ended up using didn't fit the bracket as well. I also had to drill out the mounting hole in the junction block.

auto store has correct line based on 10 or 12 bolt axle housing by application.
