saved my son car project
got this for my boy's old sedan project he was working on in the garage. was a bit worried about fit since finding older spares is tough but this upper radiator hose went in smooth. rubber feels sturdy enough to handle daily heat without kinking up. only minor issue was delivery took an extra day than expected, otherwise solid.
