Appliance brand headers from the early 70's???

[Survivor 69/Z28]

Hello,
I have a set of Appliance brand headers on my 69 Z28 that were installed back in the early part of 1974. Does anyone know anything about these headers? Were they very popular? Were they considered to be any good etc...??
They sure seem to be good ones. They have been on the car for 33 years and still look pretty good.


Thanks for the help!!!

I considered Appliance Headers for my Chevelle in that same time period. Ended up buying a set of M/Ts instead. Appliance were something of a lower cost piece when compared to the likes of Hooker, Hedman, etc. Not bad items though, and I used to see them fairly often.

I must say the guy that owned this Z for 34 years must have known something about headers in the 70's. Because these things look darn good for lasting this long.

Are they still white? As best as I can recall, all Appliance headers came painted white. They usually never stayed white for very long

That's what I remember too Bill. (And yes, I still have the M/Ts. )

Appliance were always the cheaper brand of products. Does not mean they were bad just cheaper. I think places like Sears, JC Penneys and a few other dept. stores carried this somewhat off brand. They worked and the tubing was thick enough to withstand the test of time. Keep em!!
