Where to purchase A/C and Defrost Hoses? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 72 factory air truck and I'm wondering where is the best place to purchase the hoses that goes to the A/C vents and the Defrost vents? I just recent got the deverter box replaced, so now I need the hoses. Thanks, Jeff.

Most retailers sell them in two varieties. You can get them in the original type cloth material, and the other is a vinyl accordion hose.

Do NOT get the LMC stiff plastic ones. Waaay too rigid. Defrost vent won't stay in place and too hard to route. Can't imagine running A/C lines with it.
