Question: original looking rubber brake hoses for a '67

[Silverbullit]

Received brake hoses from a reputable vendor. Fronts marked "OEM", have a white stripe, and dark-steel fittings. Rears say "aftermarket", have no stripe and yellow zinc fittings. Which, if either, is correct (as original)? (Sept '66 build '67)

[Silverbullit]

Pretty please?

Does it actually say OEM and aftermarket on the hoses?? Original hoses as I remember them have no writing or stripes on the hose, and yellow colored end fittings, I think this dates back to the 356 hoses.

No, the packaging was marked "OEM" and "aftermarket". I cleaned up an old hose and found "Ate" embossed on the rubber hose (as above), but no stripe, and what appear to be yellow-plated ends. I'll settle for new ones that look close to that. Thanks, guys, for the reply, and for the photo.

You probably have to find NOS hoses, I think the current Ate hoses are different from originals.

Yes, they are a bit different. I really don't want to trust even new, old rubber hoses on a driven car. Since I'm not going concourse, I'm thinking of something close in appearance will do me. Thanks again.

As a concour judge I can tell you that I personally would not count off for an updated brake hose, that is a safety item, as are seat belts, we judges are not supposed to 'see' that. So go ahead and show it

Cool. Thanks Ed, maybe I'll see you "on the lawn."
