A/C and heater hose routing
I have been doing some repairs on my 67 base 327/300hp convertable. It looks as if the previous owner routed the hoses incorrectly. Does anyone have some pics they can post for me? My car has power steering and air conditioning.

When you take the old hoses off the heater core don't go Gorilla on them. If you break a core pipe end, you are in deep do-doo. Take a razor or very sharp device and slit each hose, then carefully peel each hose off. Orientate your hose clamps on each new hose first for best access, lube the core pipes with some silicone or similar lube and slide the new hoses on.
