Default Re: Appliance brand headers from the early 70's???

Nope, they are not white and there are no indications of them ever being white. But then again they have been on the car for 30+ years and have around 50k miles on them. Strange thing is, the guy that owned the car for 34 years said that they were high dollar headers for back then and said he researched them before buying. He also said that he left the exhaust manifolds at the speed shop where he had the headers installed. LOL!!!
I had an exhaust system put on my car a few months back. The installer was a old hot rodder. He went on and on about how nice those old headers were. Kept commenting on the old square flanges.
I think some people just like them because they look so retro I guess...

I will e-mail the old owner to see if they were white. Who knows maybe he was mistaken by the brand name.

Thanks for the history lesson guys!!!!!!
