Call one of the pantera parts stores and tell them you need that little red

hose for the clutch and they will send one right out.  The plastic that it

is made out of is special and probably not available at most any parts

store.  Even if it is it is difficult to repair.  I know, the muffler shop

burnt mine in two when using a torch to get the manifold bolts out.  I know,

this is when I just bought it and did not start doing the work my self.  I

soon learned.  They replaced it with some other plastic line and it broke

before I got it home.  



The hose is cheap, just buy the whole new one.
