Fusick does not carry the rubber tubes for our 54-55 Oldsmobile. The rubber tube with the flattened end like what is in the manual. All that were left of mine were the round clip that held them on. Can not find any other manufacturers that make this piece; anyone out there have a source or a way to make one myself?

 

These are the tubes that go on the bottom of the air boxes, not on the firewall

 

Scott,I am not sure what they look like on a '55 Olds since I didn't have to install them in mine, but EBay has a Holden heater box drain kit with clamp ,for about $20 U.S. You can take a look and see if you think they might work. Larry

 

Thanks Rocketowner, looks like the one in the manual but not quite as long. Wish the diameter dimension was given. Would probably purchase if I knew they would bit air boxes.

 

i dont know what a cowl vent is as im very early in my rebuild but i might possibly have that line on my 55 olds. Take a picture and put it up on here and i can measure mine if i have it and get you some diamensions at least if mine is there.

 

Scott,go to eBay and type in Evaporator vent tubes and there are several types,but the Chev.Nova is similar but longer looking, and it being a GM ,might be closer to fitting than the Holder version. Larry

 

Thanks Rocketowner, the Holder unit I looked at was not compatible with my car (Mercedez). The Ford T bird unit might work even though it is has a more square opening.

 

Fusick sent me some but they don't look like that, mine were flat like a tyre tube with the clamp and since not having a heater box I don't need them anyways.
