There were a lot of variations in the radiator hoses. Just look at the
diagram (http://www.gordon-glasgow.org/Images/16.gif) and you can see that
there are 9 different lower hoses and 7 different upper ones.

Thanks to all for the horn and heater wire input. So the coil goes INSIDE
the heater core box, eh?
Not this restoration!
The box is in there and I'll be damned if I'm gonna tear out the dash or lie
on my back hours on end for this one. Come to think of it, I did see a
couple holes in the firewall that looked like they might be perfect. Until
the next heater recore, that is :)
On another note, I have noticed that the lower radiator hose comes very
close to the bottom fan belt pulley. I'm not talking 'Oh, look at how that
hose is a couple inches away' close, I mean about 1/4 inch or less close. Do
I need to trim the hose to adjust the path, or is something seriously wrong
here? I worry that the engine twisting on it's mounts could cause the pulley
to hit the hose.
