Choosing the right hose clamp for your Mustang involves both personal taste and function. It has to look right and it needs to do its job, which means you need clamps that can do both well. (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/howto/1403_how_to_choose_hose_clamps_for_your_ford_musta ng/)Inspiration for this article came from my own Mustang project, which is a mild period restomod with 1960s nuances and hidden modifications designed to make the car safer, more reliable, and more fun to drive. When it was time to dress the engine, I knew I wanted something different aside from garden variety tower clamps. I ordered radiator hoses from Marti Auto Works with the factory markings and wire-style hose clamps, which were used by Ford for a limited time in 1967 in an effort to make vehicle assembly easier. The wire-style clamp stapled to the hose took hold and became routine in the years to follow. I chose these hoses and clamps because I liked the way they looked and functioned.
