It's 1-5/8" type used on '64 Hawks from heater blower to defrost vents. Nothing available in that size locally...any ideas?

The 1 3/4 Inch X 6 Inch defroster Ducts #800514 are for '49-'58 Models, the 2 Inch X 6 Inch #800515 is for '59-'66. You must have mis-measured.
They would go from the Fiberglass Heat distribution Tube/Box to the Windshield Outlets.StudeRich

Studebaker had a very unique "Clamping" method on '59-'66's; at the Distribution Duct end, a 1 3/4 Inch piece of 5/16" or 3/8" Fuel Hose stuck between the 2 Duct Hoses.StudeRich

The 2" hose will work and can be fairly well sealed with a couple of hose clamps. I've never seen a judge look under the dash to see if the heater hose diameter was correct.Brad Johnson,

Why would there be a point deduction for using duct tape underneath the dash? There's nothing in the club's judging guide that requires examination of anything underneath the dashboard.Mike O'Handley, Cat Herder Third Class
