Dick - just trying to confirm if a Feb 69 car falls within the mid-69 range (69 was a long production year). If so, then this special clamp set up should be correct from a judging standpoint.

I would think that it is correct.

Pat: If your other hoses are crimped, then wouldn't they be incorrect for your car? ie: shouldn't all your hoses have the ideal clamps with the locating bar?

Mike, early cars were clamped

Mike - good question, and I don't know the answer, but then who knows for sure when the cutoff occurs from one (bar clamp) to the other (crimp)?

The other hoses I pulled look very original with the proper crimps and Harrison markings on the rubber. I posted a few pics regarding my compressor several weeks ago and the muffler line was in the pic, and people commented on the originality.

Added note: As far as I have been able to determine, this line was never available, thru parts, as an assembly. I am trusting my crusty memory, but I think that the tube was sold thru the Standard Parts as a cut to length piece of tubing and cut to length hose.
