I'm looking for the 2 black plastic straps that hold the squirter hose to the bottom of the fiberglass hood. (location marked with RED arrows in pic)

The black plastic T that snaps into the hood. (same as used on steel hood cars) (location marked with BLUE arrow in pic)

Also, the ribbed hose itself. Not sure how much I need.

Does anyone sell these parts? Maybe as a kit? Who?

Thanks
Tav

I don't think anyone makes the black straps. I need them for my car as well. My car had the orginal tee and hose still. I would try Rt specialties on the tee and hose.

Great question Tav. I have the other W. Sqirter pieces for my car but I do not believe I have those either.

Anyone have a good picture of the black straps at least? Both are the same right?

Aren't the "T's" (AKA the airplane) different on the fibreglass hoods - reversed or something? I'll check my stuff.

Nope we just broke off the one from your hood. It was the same as a steel hood type.

can anyone tell me the overall length of an original strap for these transam hood cars. Looking at the pic Dave W posted above, I'm assuming about 3" ?

I never found any of those for my T/A. It is a funny looking strap and they used nothing like it anywhere else.


..(but don't tell anybody that I don't have them on my car, OK)....


....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!

I've tried numerous different straps and nothing came close enough - BUT - I have something else in the works. I'll post my findings later this week

Please post what you figure out. I'd like to figure out something to use on my car.

Interesting. Both my AAR and T/A have three zinc plated clips, secured to the hood with phillips head screws.

Bill, if you need original examples to use as a pattern for reproductions just holler.

Ken,
Can you post some photos of them? I have seen the metal version on AARs before, but I have not noticed any on T/As yet. One more thing to start looking for..........

Barry:

I was wrong. The T?A has the straps (or at least one of them). The AAR has the clips and screws.
