Default NOS Kustom Headers (Flint, MI), 55-57 Chevy

Here is a mint set of NOS Kustom headers, pre-1970 based on the numbering system. Calling these hard to find would be an understatement. Great look for a period correct hot rod, Junior Stocker, or whatever else you're building that deserves original 1960s speed parts. $550, free delivery to MCACN.

I'm pretty sure the original building still stands on Richfield Rd.

I think this is it: Southwest corner of Richfield and Belsay Rds.

The headers they offered for '65/66/67 GTOs were patterned after the ones on our car.

That’s it!

Boy would I love to find a set of Kustom headers for my 67 GTO. I have the next best thing, a set of NOS JR headers, but I’m not sure they will work with my power steering. That will have to be one of my winter projects….

50 years ago, I spent many hours and many dollars in that building. I would save money for months to buy my parts from them, although I had a"line of credit" with them. I still live about two miles from there. Seen a LOT of nice stuff go through that building in all the time Kustom was there.

All familiar names Keith! I hit all the same places. Almost all are now gone though. We used to have at least a half dozen machine shops around here. All gone. Chrome shops too. The wife of the guy that ran Automotive is now my tax accountant. No hot rod shops or tool shops left. I have to order my nuts and bolts from Ohio now. Only American made ones that I have found close.

If anyone here buys the headers from Tony, I have some literature from Kustom if you are interested.

Headers are still available - had a couple interesting Day 2 trade offers so far, but nothing I need at the moment....
