    Those are spring clips and found throughout the car...same ones for fuel lines
    that hold the rubber lines to the metal stub lines. I should have it...will look this afternoon.

    Forgot to mention Frank is making the reproduction hoses and clamps. He also make the overflow tanks. I will contact him and get the info on the site tonight...I already received the hose w/clamps.....very very nice.

    I think Dan is asking about the clip that holds the hose to the side of the radiator toward the bottom of the radiator? If so, I need one also!

    Thats what I thought too.

    The repros I have seen (? manufacturer) are not made out of spring steel like the originals, so you need to figure out some way of attaching them so they don't fall off.

    GSDAN has priority here, of course.
    Anyone has an extra I'd like to get one for mine as well.
    '71 350 AT if it matters, not worried about the numbers as long as it fits.

    I bought the repro from TPP. It's okay at best and tricky to install, but once on looks fine. FWIW.

    wonder what the letters on the clips mean? I have ones a couple with BB or BG. Sorry not for sale. Too rare.

    Not sure but think I have seen these on K5 Blazers. If someone had the right OEM part what would it be worth (since so many people seem to be looking for these)?
