The only hope I would have would be the dealer, but I would be surprised. The only real hope is probably from a salvage car or to make them yourself. If you find them, post it:)
 
I've been to every site like this I can find. No one seems to know were to find them.

I wanted a way to spot vacuum hoses at a glance lol. The quadrajet on the 231 has like 7 or 9 vacuum hoses coming out of the front. They come out right behind the distributer and its wires. There are also t's in there for some vacuum hoses with the wiring for the ESC control system. It's a mess. I'll fix some of it with that black corrugated (plastic that's split) tubing. If I could put back the original vacuum hose colors it would ease the eye strain even more.

If I ever find them I'll open a store and sell them.......lol
 
I thought you wanted them for your heater a/c hoses. That is where you will find them is up under the dash, once they come out into the engine compartment most of them are in rough shape, but under the dash they are pretty good. I don't know if they were ever on the engine.
 
I dont know about the older cars, but the younger cars do have color coded lines in the engine bay, maybe thats where you can get them, off of a post 80ies car in the pick and pull
 
I'll try that wrecking yard idea next time I go to the city.
When I drove a big truck the Freightliner had vacuum hoses everywhere under it's dash. I thought they were coded but they don't stock them.
I could have sworn I saw them somewhere on the web back when...Oh well.
