Default A/c duct hose clamps on a 65 coupe?
What is the diameter of the duct hose that feeds the left side a/c outlet and did they ever use clamps to secure them? Thank you, Duke

Your Assembly Manual (Section C60, sheet A5, View "B") shows a clamp (item #28) on the outlet end of the hose from the A/C box, but I don't know what size it is.

I have an old original it is 2 1/2" ID 5 1/2" long flattened into an oval except an inch on each end the clamps were dated tower clamps. Hose material was a wire reinforced cloth.
