History Chinatown confidential

Watched the 4 episodes. Interesting to say the least. While watching I noticed some of the headers were painted orange? I have never seen this on any other gassers. Have anyone of you?

 

Episode #1

 

Wow!! Very cool, Phil. Thanks

 

I remember orange headers from the 60s. I picked up a header and intake (with 3 48s) for my Rutherford OHV Banger build.

 

There was a T with headers painted to look like they were hot in the Love For T-Buckets thread.
I mentioned it here with a pic of hot headers.

Mickey Thompson made orange headers.

 

My 62 Fairlane gasser built in 64 had one of the header tubes painted orange found it last winter when I striped the headers of its gold and painted them white.

 

'70s Plasti - Coat 1200 degree red would turn orange in a few weeks ...

 

All 4 episodes were pretty cool. Those guys were building some nice cars.
