    Any one have a source or cross reference for upper and lower radiator hoses
    for a 1987 GLHS? The original factory hoses are discontinued from Mopar and most parts stores don't even have a listing for the correct GLHS hoses. They try to sell you the regular turbo hoses for a "Shelby Charger". I was thinking maybe an upper hose from an intercooled Daytona, Shadow or even maybe a Caravan. The lower hose is more problematic. I could cobble something together, but would like to have something close to stock. This is not for a concourse restoration, just a driver. I was hoping some other owners have run into this problem and I would like to hear about their solutions.

    I can relate to your problem, and unforuately, I don't have a solution for it either.

    The hoses on my GLHS are getting up there in age also, but I haven't been able to find a source for OEM rad hoses. The only thing I seen them show up on ffrom time to time is on Ebay and they are not listing at a cheap price anymore.
    If my memory serves me correctly, I saw a new Mopar brand top rad hose sell for $115 on Ebay.
    I guess the time has come when we Shelby Dodge owners get to feel the pain the Shelby Mustang guys / gals have been dealing with.

    Good luck...

    Long Overdue! That is fabulous news. Any word of any other reproduction parts being made for the L body?
