I never considered until now when I need one this part would be so elusive. No longer made or out of stock I have not been able to find a Model B Ford upper hose part # B-8260,2" i.d. X a 11 1/4" length. Anybody have a source or know that my search is futile and off to NAPA I go. Kinda think posing on parts wanted is no longer an option on this site never been successfull only responses from guys with surname like first name.

If you don't want to use a flex hose, you can go to a NAPA or other auto parts store to locate a couple of 2" I.D. curved rubber hoses and a straight piece of 2" O.D. steel tube and the hose clamps required to connect them together.

There are no curves in any of the three Model B radiator hoses.

Go to a FRIENDLY auto parts store and ask them to look for a hose with 11 1/4" of straight area, then cut off any curves. A good parts guy should be able to find something, possibly from a late model truck. Paul

Took a lot of time today but found the correct but apparently obsolete 1932 Model hoses on Ebay . Not so lucky on my parts wanted ad for a 1932 Model B air cleaner/ silencer. All fake scammers who could at least read or understand what I want not a carburetor or a silencer for a something else.
