I got my parts back from the restoration shop. They informed me how the hoses were fastened originally. I then realized I am missing the bracket that holds them against the shock tower and the 2 straps. I found the bracket at wccc but I didn’t see the straps. Does anyone know what they look like or better yet, where to find them?
Here are pics from my 1967 Standard. This car was purchased new by my wife’s grandmother in 1967. I’ve been wrenching on this vehicle since 1982. Other than replacing the suspension and some few electrical upgrades, this car is unmolested!!

Coach Jack,
Thank you for the picture. It is really neat that you have kept it mostly original. Thanks a bunch for sharing that!
I see the rubber strap and you also have the loop before it goes into the pump. My pump was also missing the hose retaining bracket that attaches to the pump.
So, earlier today, I peeked at the mustang site and saw the same rubber straps that you have. I’ve located the two holes for them and also the location for the bracket with insulator.
Decided to make them. Probably a little thicker than original, though.
With the other missing pieces being sent from wccc, I should be ok.
On a side note, thinking of the two holes for the strap. I read that they were made with self tapping screws. Is that what you have? My hole for the strap closest to the pump is closer to the apron than your hole. So it would make sense that there was no exact location.
Appreciate your help!
