C2 Windshield Washer Hose

[Timothy B.]

I want to replace the rubber windshield washer hose that runs from the pump to the grill squirters on my 67 car and was wondering what is the best material to use. I noticed on ebay there is someone selling Trico hose but I don't know if it's the correct size.

TIA for any suggestions.

Tim, make sure it's ribbed. ARA

also make sure the outside diameter is the same as what u hopefully have are originals. repos tend to be about 25% larger OD than originals. . MIKE

Thanks Ara and Mike,

Is there any reproduction hose that's close or do you guys just go to auto parts store and get vacuum/washer hose to fit.

Tim,

You might contact John Meissinger and ask him if has any authentic sized and appearing hose material. He tends to find such stuff.

i routinely find the correct hoses in GM junkyard cars of the 50's and 60's. hoses from inside the cockpit of such GM pass cars and trucks usually are well preserved and usable. mike

Might want to check with Dr. Rebuild - the guy can be a pill to deal with but some of his stuff is very correct. I used his washer hoses on my '61.
Correctly ribbed and sized.

He also carries C2 stuff.....
