I've got and carry spare almost-everythings in my car, but realized that the upper
radiator hose is fairly old and should be replaced "just because"....

Does anyone know of a supplier of (non-aftermarket/corrugated-rubber) radiator hoses for the
57+ MoPars????

Of course, for purely spare-parts purposes, a common-generic corrugated rubber upper hose would be
the cheapest/bestest way to go, and it would be relatively easy to install, since it
would be so flexible.

But, I'd still like to have a correct-looking upper radiator hose.

Anybody got a source for OEM (looking) radiator hoses???

I don't need parts-number stenciling on the hose...even tho this car's hose is coded for a 1958-
1959 car (beginning with 18xxxx on it)

I have a 60 Dodge with a 318, I pulled mine and took it to NAPA. They matched it up to a 7240 which I had to shorten a little to fit.

What Phatton said.
I had no problem get new hoses for the F last fall when I rebuilt the engine, a 413 w/AC.
Take a little thinner on a rag and the #'s should come right off w/a little rubbing.

SO, NAPA 7240 (he shouts in glee).....


Shortening is good: "I keep on cutting this thing, but it's still too short."
