If changing the hoses too, might be an opportune time to install a better aluminum parallel flow condenser. There are many on ebay for ~$50 and give dimensions. You will have to fab some straps, but usually easy. I did that in my 1960's Mopar cars. Best to get one with common O-ring fittings (usually #8 in, #6 out liquid). You can get inline reducers if your compressor outlet hose differs (might be #10 for my R-4, I forget). No need for a ferrule crimper, though that gives a factory look. Oeticker stepless ear-clamps work fine (can use 2 each end) and look almost factory. Some sizes of PEX tube ferrule crimps might work.
