    need some 1959 power top info.

    Does anyone know the size of the brass fittings that go between the hoses and the pistons on the 1959 power top set up? Where can I get them? I need three.

    I have a complete set of original hoses, the fitting on the long hose that goes to the bottom of the driver side piston is broken at the piston end, can this be repaired? Can I get just that one hose? can I get that fitting? If so, where?

    Thanks for the help.

    Steve, Maybe 2 options.

    Try to locate a shop that makes hydraulic hoses. My local NAPA can do that.

    Contact John Schell, who restores these systems. He has a supplier that makes the hoses and may be able to get you just that one hose or the fittings.
