Hoses - Shiny or Flat?

[Skull-1]

I bet if you just go through there and start wiping things down with a rag and a good cleaner though, you'll be surprised how much newer (and shinier) some of that stuff will get.

LOL, I'm still laughing from the earlier comment ... but seriously. I usually wipe them down and get the dust off.  Some are naturally shinier than others, but then I don't have "factory" style hoses either.

Very nice.  I should consider an air cleaner like that....

I had a few hoses that got overspray on them when i was painting the fender with the hood up (had leaf bags covering most of the motor but didn't bother with the hoses as i thought i'd replace them later anyway.  I had some Plasti-dip cans on the shelf and tried coating the upper radiator hose with that and it came out looking very nice, its flexible, its balanced between flat and new/shiny looking and buys me time until i do buy new hoses.  Still have to buy new belts and heater/ac hoses.  

Were the factory plug wires orange?  I need to find a dual snorkel air breather for my car, since its coded with the silencer package, it's always had the unsilenced one on it since i got it.

Not in 67 but I had 'em so they went on. I like them better than the black.

That looks to be the right amount of dull and shiny under there too.  Very nice.
