Hi Mike,
My go to source, the NCRS 68-69 TIM&JG, indicates the 68-69 heater hoses did not have the GM logo stamped on them.
They were ribbed and some originals have been seen with white letters stamped on them along their length… both single letters and pairs of letters.
There's no mention of the earlier red/white GM logo hoses being carried over into early 68 production
Regards,
Alan
The GM logo hoses sure are pretty but I believe they belong on mid-year cars?
