Have you tried Agriline? They advertise them.

I have found in my 1961 parts manual that the radiator hose clips are flat types. Only the air cleaner pipes are shown as wire clips.

Thanks for the tip about Old20. :wink:
Can you establish why your hoses are leaking - eg are they bedded onto corroded/rough surfaces?
