1969 Original Brake Hoses
 
WTB NOS or Excellent original single crimp brake hoses for my 69 Camaro. Front discs and rear drum.

I have some money that doesn't like me and is dying to be spent. Please help me and my money...and my Camaro.

Did you call Tommy Mathison in Wisconsin? He does "perfect" repops.

Tommy does a beautiful job but, his are current DOT double crimp ends. I'm looking for original single crimp ends. It's an easily noticeable difference. We can get into a long winded discussion about safety and all that. I agree, if driving is your thing, Tommy's would be the perfect middle ground

If anyone has originals, I would appreciate a chance to buy them.

Thanks,

Mark

Sounds like Mark wants the assembly line correct crimped ends that used totally different tooling to attach the hose to the ends besides the correct Part I.D. and date code information.
Tommy's hoses have the correct style and color printing but not the correct style ends that I believe Mark's looking for.
I looked into making my own reproduction hoses but hit a wall trying to find someone who could replicate the original style crimped ends . Every hose manufacturer that I talked to wouldn't even consider trying to replicate the long single style crimp as it's no longer DOT compliant.

Chuck,

Tell me what it takes to motivate you to get the wrench.

Thanks for the radiator. I took the return label, with your name on it, over to Rupp and sold it for $1,000.00 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

I have correctly re-stenciled vintage NOS single crimp hoses in the past. If you need something light put on your original hoses, I can certainly help you out with that. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
