Looking for Vent hose for a 53 Manhattan 2 Dr. I think it is 5" diameter. Where would you shop for this?

Jim, I just completed the same search and ended up buying from Corvette Central (see e-bay link below). They are fantastic to deal with and the product is high quality and perfectly authentic. I think it will make even the "Chief Judge" happy. Highly recommend. ;)

I second that. I replaced both mine, and the Covette Central material really did the trick.

At
$10 a foot how many feet did you use??

Jim, I'm not sure what is required, best to measure your car. I bought 3.5' (yes, they sell a half foot if you'll tell them at checkout what you need) for a club member in Spain I was getting parts together for. I think that was about a foot excess but they didn't want to run short due to the freight over there; better be safe than sorry. MF

That's a good question. I know the right is shorter than the left. I can't remember how much I ordered now, but I think I needed at least two feet for the left and less than that for the right. But taking off the old hose and measuring is the safest bet. Sorry I don't have better info for you.

LOL ;D
