Im restoring a 39 pickup and need a source for the upper radiator hoses. What have you guys used? Did ford use a metal pipe between the upper hoses? I am running a fresh 59A-B engine. thanks

I never found a source for them. I used car hoses, cut them in half and added a 7 inch section of exhaust pipe in the middle.

On my 39 P/U I bent exhaust pipe the shape needed and have short straight hoses at each end of the pipe to the head and radiator. Looks and works good. G.M.
