1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
I decided I wanted to take a stab at saving my dash air vent hoses which have some damage and are getting pretty fragile as the paper material is degraded over the decades,
What I ended up deciding to try was using a black cloth tape, so I cleaned the surface then stuffed some rags into the one thats torn in the middle to provide some support. Then I sprayed some 3M adhesive around the damaged area and put a couple of wraps around that area then sprayed the whole hose and started at one end and wrapped the entire hose and repeated the wrap on the other one that had less damage,
Pretty happy with the way they turn out, they seem to have a vintage car look and the aftermarket don't exactly matched either and this cost me maybe 10 bucks compared to over a hundred for those,
