Is this hose available through anybody from Ford to Green Sales if now obsolete which it may be. Posted the number only as I figure that would catch Bill's eye quickly...

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has ONE = 800-543-4959.
DON SANDERSON FORD in Glendale AZ has THREE = 623-842-8762.
Sanderson will prolly be cheaper.
-------------------------------- C7AZ6A664A .. Smog Hose, same I.D.'s as C7TZ6A664A / Fits: 1967/71 390/410/428 Passenger Cars.
Someone said this hose has been reproduced and it will fit, but...
If you're going for a concours type restoration, be aware this hose has Motorcraft marked on it. It should not be marked...at all.
Whoever repopped this hose did not realize that...there was not only no such thing as Motorcraft prior to 1973, but that all the various smog hoses did not carry Auto-Lite (1961/72) or Motorcraft (1973 to date) part numbers.
Bill. actually Green Sales is very reasonable in price. Compared to the Ford dealers mentioned in other posts as having good prices (ie. Arizona dealers) Green Sales is within 0.05 cents of many items as they round up rather than use $9.95.

I've been dealing with Green Sales since 1966. Some of their prices are reasonable, some are not, some are outrageous. It all depends on supply, demand, and rarity.
Green Sales has access to the Ford dealer parts locator and the system most other obsolete parts vendors use. So..they know how many of a certain part is available.
Sanderson Ford in Glendale AZ has 10's of 1000's of obsolete parts, sells them for below what the last dealer net cost was...which usually is 40% less than MSRP.
For example, they have dozens of 1973/79 F100/350 (& '78/79 Bronco) R/S window regulators. The last MSRP was $125.31, they sell them for $70.00, which is 5 bucks below net cost ($75.07).
Call Green Sales (800-543-4959) and ask them what their price is for D8TZ1023200A (they have 6). I'll betcha it's a lot more than 70 bucks!
Ford dealers are usually cheaper than obsolete parts vendors because the obsolete vendors make their living selling these parts.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch...the dealers are STUCK with obsolete parts, as they can no longer be returned to Ford.
I'll keep that in mind for the future. Have only bought small ticket items from Green Sales so far. If I'm in the market for something like your example then I'll definitely look at the Ford Dealers. Thanks...
