yes or YES.... great ideas.. Its not like we will not spread the word that Geebee got the goodies. Or stamp it in black even, just so its not in your face.
no disrespect at all. Much appreciated addition to our buses. Tired hose is a danger. _________________ Special Thanks to:

or, put it on the BACK of the hose, or the bottom so it cant be seen unless its off the car... _________________ Stuart Zickefoose

Now your going to complain about my logo ??
I can do a custom one time charge with your name for 300.00, can make as many as you want
I was thing of making the four intake tube hoses in matte black to match, 5 ply silicone with nomex....
I can also make with no logo, remember I stuck my head to make these ( tool ) cost for the mandrell
I still have not recovered that cost yet....
So please be thankful....

Geebee, I am very thankful You were excellent to work with, and they arrived so quickly!
Stuart- I paid 85 total to have the C and L at my door a couple days later. Really good stuff, and the bus thanks me too _________________ -Tony

I think that anyone who goes out of their way to make reproduction parts for vehicles, especially good parts, that haven't been made for over 30 plus years should be considered a Saint. Just ask anyone who sells them. It is getting VERY hard to source good original parts anymore, so there are going to have to be some alternatives. The people who go that extra mile should be thanked.
Thank you, GEEBEE _________________ Kris

This all started when I put a 1.9 TDI in my 1980 caddy pickup
I also do intake ducts for aircraft and die cutting of silicone seals and gaskets....
I do the vanagon water coolant hoses and all the Ducati motorcycle models....
I still want to make the intake assys also...

Geebee, It frustrates me to read the whines about cost, lack of appreciation for your time and effort, and (and i still cant believe it) your brand name on the hose - i can't imagine how you feel as the creator. - i hope you continue to provide your products despite this
I too now have your decel valve hose, very nice product and better than a excessively long bit of hose bowed all over any day.
like a couple other previous posters, i agree you should try and make the short bit of hose between the AAR and the plenum - heres some pics of one with some rough measurements i took. i'm happy to send along this little bit of hose if it will help you reproduce it
the last pic is kinda dark, the "Squashed" length is just a hair under 75mm
I'll take one if you make one!
thanks! _________________ May of '72 Deluxe. 2.0L L-Jet CS & 091 trans conversion

I have spares of some of these parts that I would gladly send in so you could make molds/copies/or whatever you call them. As long as I got the originals back.
I'll look and see which ones I have. _________________ Eric
