Molded rubber hoses to wiper door actuator on 68?

Re: Molded rubber hoses to wiper door actuator on

Just to muddy the waters a bit- my early '69 (Oct. '68) has original hoses and the front hose off the actuater appears to be molded. It has a tight bend which is not very flexible. The rear hose has a gentler bend and I would guess that it is not molded. I am certain that these are original since I have owned the car since 1 year old and I never changed them or cut them off. I suppose it is possible after all these years that the front hose took the 90 degree bend and hardened to that shape but it appears to be molded.

Just to muddy the muddy waters I have seen them both way's on 1969's I cannot remember seeing molded hoses used on the double "pie pan" actuator. But then again, I have the dreaded "NCRS" (never can remember squat) disease

Yes, the heater hoses for C-60-equipped cars were molded on one end. In fact, the "Good Doctor" reproduces this hose. For C-60 cars, this hose is not only "correct", it's virtually a functional necessity
