Hook up a brake line and bleed all the brakes, how much$$$?

I need a brake line hooked back up and then all the brakes bled (I would assume because they are full of air now). How much should this cost? STS should be able to do this too?

Thanks,

With a vac brake bleeder this shouldn't take more than 1 hour of shop time.
Depends on the going shop rate, but it would likely be around 80 bucks or so.

Plus the time to run, repair, or whatever, the brake line in question

I've seen a couple of rusty lines creep up into 3-4 hours of work by the time they get bent up and bled.
