Original Orange Stripped Inlet Hose
"A" FORDBARNERS ...........................
This shows the true color of the "red" stripe on the "A" radiator hoses. The reproductions are a little too red. MIKE |

Re: Original Orange Stripped Inlet Hose
The ink on the box sure looks like it faded from the original color.

I'm sure it has. The hoses have been protected by the box for decades. The hoses actually look a little bit more orange, than shows in the photo. MIKE |

Re: Original Orange Stripped Inlet Hose
Do the reproductions have the cloth reinforcement?

Re: Original Orange Stripped Inlet Hose
What was the reason for the stripe? why didn't they just make them all black?

Re: Original Orange Stripped Inlet Hose
The stripe relates to sealing the edge of the fabric wrapping. Hoses were made at some point which were all black (not sold by Ford) with the same construction but there was still a visible stripe even though it was black.
