I bought a new one from Rock Auto for my '66. It had the correct fittings but was not the identical shape of the original although it connected just fine without interference.
A good option is to take your old hose to a place that works on forklifts, heavy equipment, and/or semi trucks. They'll have the equipment to make hydraulic lines of any size, shape and length with the correct crimped fittings.

Take your original to a hydraulic shop and have them clean/re-use the metal connector parts and replace the hose to correct specification. I did that for mine. It's impossible to find the correct hose for these. And 67 up Eldorados are different.

Re: 67 power steering pressure hose
Thanks everybody. My local shop said they couldn't reuse my orig fittings so I bought a new hose from Advance pn 36121. The fitting angles are a little different but close. I think it looks better than their recommended hose pn 36212.
