I have a 1959 plymouth Savoy with the flat head 6 cylinder motor.I am in the process of detailing the engine compartment. I would like to know what color the heater hoses should be.The one’s on the car now are red. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.
Probably black,but im not really sure,i have seen red hoses on some older Chrysler products,mine has black ones,altho my flathead 6 is painted black as well,i think red is the proper color,but again not sure!
Guys,anyone know?
I always assumed “black”, with red being an early-to-mid 60’s replacement item. To my mind, black blends in better..looks more sedate
My car had a gasoline heater, no hoses! Too bad, it was new, too.

Thanks for the information. I think I might just change out the red hoses and install black ones.
I dont mean to “steer” you, but I think you are making the right decision.
