The Book of Norm lists the many original style hose clamps. There is a wide variety of types and sizes used and some have no exact reproductions available. Some of the original hose clamps you have should be renewed for use again unless you found a replacement.
Radiator – large double wire clamps – Mustang catalogs and the like carry them
Heater hose – Ford tower clamps - Mustang catalogs
Heater hose - English band clamps on the ½” heater hoses – I never found a replacement for this style – that may have changed now – re-use originals if possible
Heater hose – the smaller double wire clamps – Moss and others carry them – some are not like the originals
PCV hose – Corbin single wire clamp – Mustang catalogs
Original clamps at the fuel filter were a crimped style clamp – the current spring style is much easier to work with.
If you need to use a worm gear clamp anywhere I suggest the embossed worm gear style clamp instead of the perforated style.

Thanks for the link. I'm going to try and clean up the old ones but it is good to see a source for new ones.
Next question. The Book of Norman says most of the 1" hoses used a Ford band clamps. Does anyone have a photo of an original clamp as used on the water pump bypass hose? I don't really want to just use a worm gear clamp.
Thanks,
Joe

Happy Saturday,
What is this type of hose clamp called? They were on the hose that went from the brake booster to the intake manifold. I haven't seen anything like this anywhere else.
Thanks,
Joe Brown
