'59 Ford defroster hose source?
Looking for this piece of hose that goes between the heater box and defroster plenum. Its oval and I can't find it in any parts house I deal with. Nobody online has a listing for it. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks, Bob |

Close but no cigar. But thanks to everyone for the help. I've seen some Jeep oval hoses that I can adapt.
Both the heater and defroster attach points are oval. If I get a hose that is too big, I'll make up adapters from some dense foam, maybe stack up some Dynamat. |

I had the same problem with a 58 Ford heater and cut the top and bottom off of a black plastic oil bottle. As I recall it fit perfectly. Don't forget to take the paper label off the bottle.

I used the foil back duct tape that hvac people use on mine. Then painted it black. Not original but neat and functional.

Check with some of the after market A/C vendors (i.e. Vintage
Air). They use pliable duct material that might work. |
