I have seen them with a double clamp on the fenderwell. I think most people left them off if they replaced the hoses though. I think they all came with them from the factory. LockDoc

Re: pics /heater hoses engine compartment
Are we looking for original here or just a nice way to clamp the lines?
If just a nice way to clamp the lines I am a huge fan of Gates PowerGrip hose clamps. |

wire hose clamps lookig good tower style clamps on radiator hoses, Some corvette vendors can even match date codes.....if your as OCD or padantic as I am. You know its pretty bad when your restore a truck to NCRS standards. |
