    69 corvette heater hoses. help!

    I recently purchesed heater hoses for my 69 corvette convertible with a/c. I want the correct gm lettered hoses. I received one with nothing and one with the gm letters faint and half rubbed off. What happed to the heat transfered gm heater hoses. Are thet available anywhere or is this all that is out there. They seem to be getting worse the last few sets I received. Thanks

    Jonathan,
    If you want correct for judging heater hoses for your 1969, you do not want GM lettered hoses. There must be a lot of GM lettered hoses available though, I see them often, and deduct for them just as often.

                    I respectfully disagree with the 1968-69 TIM&JG on this point. Stick with the description in the second sentence, not the one in the first sentence.

                            Remove the worn out GM lettering with lacquer thinner. So long as the hoses you have are black, you will be more than 80% or the way there. Depending on the judge, you may receive a slight deduction for the brand marks (ribs or grooves) on the hose; but many judges ignore that feature since few know the code. And who is to say that the hoses should be one brand over another anyway.
