I've been working backwards on getting 382000975 to show quality.? Get it running after 17 years of indoor storage 2004.? Trunk restored 2005.? New (and last) red Pro-Prep GT interior completed 2006.? Body made laser straight 2006-07.? Seven stage show paint by Restoration Autotech (black)?2008.? Show chrome by -The Bumper Guy,- Southern California 2008.

Now I'm moving to the engine bay.? Despite?paint and chrome, I'm looking to keep this as original as possible.? The original and only prior owner never touched very much on the car.??For example, many of the hoses appear original (even still have yellow striped vacuum hose).??As configured when I got the car, the heater hose throughout was black save for the heater core connections and the warming hose to the carburator spacer.? These were orange.? My question:? What is the correct color or color combinations for the heater hoses in the engine bay.? While I've got your attention, was the coil the yellow-top?as seen on the 1964 260?Mustangs, or was it all black?? Also confirming, the distributor cap should be blue?? 

Thank you all for any help.

Very truly yours,
Bob Nersesian
