67 vs 68 Powersteering return hose

[Bob Gaines]

I was checking for a powersteering return hose for a friend and thought I would snap a comparison picture of the differences. The bends on the 67 are substantially different then the 68. These are two extremely rare NOS examples .The 67 is the most rare because it was one year only and changed in 68 . The 68 one is very rare too compared to the later different appearing service replacement .  Both assemblyline 67 and 68 styles are single crimped which makes them stand out from the later double crimped service hose that changed in the 70's. The repro that blue dot makes is a good substitute but isn't marked the same as the genuine ones.

Bob, are you talking about the junction block to valve hose?
