For the 68 hose kit, says the vendor is CHQ, which is good (reputation). I'm fairly certain what I got wasn't CHQ, though. Came in a generic plastic bag with no markings. I certainly didn't pay $90 for it either (of course it was a decade ago ) !... lol Good luck, Ed. Let us know how well they hold up in future....

It's not for me but for Craig (the OP that now owns the car).

Anywho, CHQ is a good bet!

Looks like it comes down to either the Classic Headquarters or OER for the vacuum hose kit.
Recomendation's or experience with either?

I'd choose CHQ over OER, EVERYTIME....although no experience with their hoses.:) I try to avoid OER whenever possible!

Good to know! This car has “very” original hoses so most likely will replace.
The main vacuum is not connected so who know, maybe they are still good!  ;D

Just got a new set of hoses for the 69.  I can barely make out the stipe colors.  Might have to try to do what Lloyd did.
