One problem is the DOT regulations have changed since the 1960's early 70's to mandate the double crimp on the end pieces, so nobody can legally sell a new part with the original single crimps. Even finding an NOS single crimp version would mean that you are installing a part that is perhaps 50 years old. Rubber ages even sitting in a box on a shelf. Kind of risky IMOfor a brake part.
