Call me ignorant or stupid, but I do not know where to locate the heater hose to the engine.  I have never had good view of this.  I would look at my own car, but I do not have one anymore.  Being disabled I can't get around to look at stuff like this.  If someone could possibly show me some pics, showing heater hose locations, then I might be able to put them in.  That is if my hands and fingers work properly on any given day.  Thanks in advance.

What model are you working on? I'll find some pix for you and post them here.

Though heater hose locations are kinda similar from car to car, there are specific differences depending on which car, which engine, etc.

In general, one hose runs from the vicinity of the thermostat to the firewall or HVAC unit, and another one runs from the firewall back to the engine / water pump.

Currently working on a 66 Chevy Nova.  Really like the images you put up.  I have a 289 restoration coming up, and you posted a great image. Also your information on where hoses go helps a lot. Thanks.

Mike here are a couple pics I built of the '66 Nova back in 1997-98.

Not the most accurate detailing as I would try to do now, but you get the idea...........;)
