Anyone know where I can find an upper radiator hose for a 1958 Golden Hawk? The part number is 1545037. I have ordered two, each from a different major Studebaker vendor and both have sent the incorrect hoses. The first vendor sent me one for an A/C car so it is too short. The second sent me something that isn't any where near close. The hose they sent has a 90 degree bend in it so I know without even trying it there is no way it will work.

Thank you Barry. I ordered one from Autozone using a part number I found on Bob Johnstones web-site. It was a good year hose. It nowhere near fit! It was only 16" long. So I went through the hoses at Autozone and found one that fit perfectly by trimming off one end.

Michael - Contact Bob Palma. I seem to remember him discussing finding a hose for George's 1958 GH. They wanted a moulded hose and not a fits all style. I am sure that you would prefer a hose that appears to be factory.
