You will likely have to have custom hoses made, but some of the better auto parts stores can make them or you can order them online.

Yes, I was doing some research last night and it looks like a '77 onwards accumulator has been used in place of the original drier/receiver. The case itself does appear to be the original '72 item according to the decal on it. The case needs rebuilding, or I need to buy a repro - Ecklers makes one but I don't know what it includes (diverter door etc?). So I think what I need to do is go back to the '72 style evaporator and drier. Thoughts?
