I'm looking for an air intake hose in good condition (or better) to replace the one in the attached picture. The hose would go in my '79 Coupe DeVille. The hose brings air from outside the car into the air cleaner. Does anyone have one of these or know where I could get one?
Thanks!
JC I have been doing some searching for one also.. The one on my 1979 Sedan DeVille is in very bad shape. Let me know if you have any luck finding a source.

JOHN: I suggest you try to verify if the air intake hose from 1976-1979 devilles are the same and if so I would try to get the one from 1976 because it is made of much better quality than the paper looking one in your picture. I have a 76 deville and mine is made of a sort of rubber/vinyl oriented fabric material which would never fall apart like yours did. Call various national and local junk yards and maybe you might be lucky to find a good used one. EAM
What happened to all the replies that were just listed herein? WOW!, something is going on! EAM
Yeah, I noticed that, too! Strange!
Anyway, I ended up getting the hose from Cadillac King in California. I haven't received it yet, so I can't comment on the quality...
Also what you can do is to enter the part number in Parts Voice or Vintage Parts

If you have the GM parts catalog for Cadillacs you can enter then part number and maybe get lucky.
I did this for my 1978 and found a NOS one. I also found a NOS ignition key lock cylinder for my car. The after market ones are junk.
It seems like you found it. If not let me know and I can look up part number for you.
Part # 1614983 I found 1 on Parts Voice

I also can tell you this source charges a lot for NOS parts.
