Gates 20168 says it is for 66 dart 273 with AC
Jeg's shows 2 in stock, O'Reilly shows to stock them, Amazon shows them, & some others all are priced about $15.00.
Rock Auto has them also.

I have another part # for the hose Day Co C70662.this on looks real close
I bought a hose that worked and always wanted to get a correct one. Thanks all for the info.
That doesn't look right.
That doesn't look right either
Dayco 70825? The hose in my photo is a very popular one and reaches around the A/C compressor i believe.
You will need the correct thermostat housing. Probably not the one that exit's straight up but at a angle.

I beleive this is a non A/C setup
Wow, the simple A/C hoses mentioned above don't look anything like the one on the red 65 in the sale ad. I wonder if I have any photos of a A/C 273.
Factory non A/C
This hose is used a lot but with the newer style thermostat housing. (not the cast iron one that is angled)

This is what mine looks like,But i have the A/C compressor out at this moment ,and that is the old rad hose .waiting for the new one in the morning.
Interesting. I have seen 3 different t-stat housings and they all take different hoses.
I think the gates hose is the one you want. 20168.
