Hi guys,
I'm looking for some advice on hose clamps. I am trying to get the car as close to "how it left the factory" as possible - its a fun challenge for me. Its my 65 Commander with 283 V8. The parts and body catalog lists the spring type clamps for both the upper and lower radiator hoses. It also lists adjustable clamps, which SI does carry. Did these cars come with upper hose spring clamps and lower hose adjustable or what? The reason I ask is that in the factory picture from Ed Reynolds Lark book shows upper hose and heater hoses with spring clamps, but lower hose has adjustable. Any reason for this? I am hoping someone will remember this from back in the day or an original car. Stu Chapman, do you remember? Thanks guys for all your Stude help.
