1995 vacuum hose/plastic tubing
I have a 1995 ZR1 and it sat for 10 years after 150k miles. All of the vacuum hose and plastic tubing are cracked and or needs to be replaced. Is there any way to keep it original? I have not been able to find anything reproduced or NOS:fahne. Thanks for your suggestions.

I've had good results with tubing from McMaster Carr formed with a heat gun and annealed copper wire.

Not sure if this company actually has or can get it despite being pricey:
Good luck with your quest as more and more items are becoming NLA. https://www.motorcityvettes.com/exha...hose-1993-1995

Might be a good opportunity for a US based member to purchase a few sets to on-sell to us international Z owners. |

Has anyone used Motor City Vettes? Are they a legitimate seller/store? Can't say I've heard of them before and don't recall anyone mentioning them on corvette forums before. |
