trouble in florida

i have a friend in a white 94 dodge somewhere in tampa florida with his brake line ruptured behind the fuel tank. is there anyone in or around tampa that could help him and not charge him like he's a tourist.

You might tell him to pick up some high pressure fuel line , cut break line where he can get access , temp fix , no panic breaking , then he can find help with out as much pressure , it does seem that if you try to get repairs near freeway that your chances of getting hosed are hi , forgot , while getting hose , also a cheap flairing tool to put a catch on end of tubing to help keep pressure from blowing hose off .
