Paul real steel fullsize models or plastic minis? Sometimes they are cropped images made into a whole new scene...if its plastic Tuesday stuff I sure know were they got the inspiration...

At least they're Hamb Friendly...

 

Hard to tell on my phone but they look like scale models to me at first

 

I don't know if they are real or scale. I am leaning toward real.

The difference in backgrounds is simply the different angle of the 2 photos.
You can see the end of the house behind the 40 (second photo) that is behind the sedan in the first photo.

Paper or foil was put on the windows to hide an unfinished interior.

 

Stahl 58-62 Corvette headers on my 39 Ford, my buddy made some zoomie like headers for his "T" RPM drag car made from flexpipe and hose clamps, and then some $5 swapmeet headers I am modifying for my '29 A P/U. Nothing too crazy, just stuff you dont see everyday. All headers I have never seen before.

not to wild, just finished, wanted to stay inside the hood.

 

Not the wildest, but they should be plenty noisy!

 

I just stopped by the chrome shop to pick up my junk and saw these. Not exactly “pipes“ in the normal header sense but definitely wild and cool for sure. All copper exhaust for a pre-war wooden boat. They are gonna polish them. I pity the polisher, they are heavy.

 

My take on a set of lakes style headers with a little bit of engine setback

 

my Flatcad in my dragster still have a ways to go but it’s getting close

 

Removeable section for long tube style in two place Thunderbird...

From last weekend at the local airport show. Slant six. I need some of those mufflers for my generator.

 

We get to see these headers show up from time to time over the years, but strangely never any history or background. I'm sure it would be an interesting story.

 

I was looking for some info,,,,,,but did not find anything.
