A/C System hoses

Post by jamespatterson »

I wanted to ask if anyone had a source for the A/C system hoses used on the cars from the late 60's - Early 70's. We are doing a 365 GT 2+2 and are having a hard time locating the correct size hose for the original fittings. The hose is a black fabric covered hose with a woven metal reinforcement. The wall is thicker than a normal A/N or A/C hose so using either of those won't fit correctly in the original fittings.

If anyone has a suggestion for a supplier I would be very thankful.

Thanks,
James Patterson

Aeroquip 1540, but I had heard that it is no longer in production. Perhaps some vendors might still have some in stock.

BTW, here are the installation instructions

Perhaps this vendor may be of assistance; no affiliation:
