Looking for some help on the correct style heater hoses and radiator hoses for a 4/15/16 BD Metuchen V8.
What appears to be the most common color stripe on the heater hoses and
what appears to be the most common clamp style on the Radiator hoses. Thanks Lu
Thanks for the input! I did a extensive search on all the forums and found some talk that perhaps in the 2nd half year production that wire style clamps may have been used on radiator hoses and that combined yellow /white even red heater hoses may have been used during that time period. It would be great if original Metuchen car owners could chime in with their observations.
This pic is just for reference but I had kept this because it represents an original 1966 Mustang 289 engine compartment. This is one of Bob Perkins cars, a very low milage 66' Mustang. This shows the radiator hoses with wire clamps but I do not know the exact build date or plant. Perhaps this would help folks none the less, once the plant/time period can be unearthed. Maybe others here know this info??
Sorry bout that. Might be why I saved the pic but couldn't remember the car info.. The coupe I'm restoring next is a Dearborn, July 66' build. Lucky info for me but not this discussion.
- (Dearborn plant so doesn't apply to this particular discussion) and a pretty late car - 6F07C3802xx
Nice pics. hopefully a later build metuchen owner will chime in. On a different not it appears the manifolds were installed before engine paint
