Default Headers for inline 6

So, my mechanic discovered that the headers on my 1966 Mustang had huge rust holes all throughout. I'm having a bit of difficulty finding any for an inline 6 that are actually in stock. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't really care about waiting 2-3 weeks for them, but the mechanic has the car parked at the edge of his driveway completely unlocked, and all you need is a screwdriver to start the thing. (I haven't replaced the ignition switch and tumbler yet.)

Bottom line, I want to get the headers to him as quickly as possible so I can get the car out of his driveway and into mine. CJ Pony and Mustangs Unlimited both have them on back order, and many of the other places I've looked don't even have them for the inline 6. Any advice?

Thank you! Ordered them today, and hopefully they'll be in by the end of the week!

Did you get your headers. Did you install them. How do you like them.

Yes, I ordered them from classic inlines and later got an electric choke from them. Had to get them installed since I don't know how to weld, but it didn't cost me much, thankfully.

I really like them! My car definitely turns heads the way it sounds! I'd say you could see a pic of them on the other thread where I ask for shocks, but they're black, and you can't really see them that well.
