Default Concourse correct exhaust clamps

Does anyone know where to purchase concourse correct exhaust clamps for a 66 GTO? I know Gardner makes them but I don't believe they sell them separate from a complete exhaust system. Attached is a new photo of a Gardner clamp and an original one on a 66 resonator.

I bought a Gardner exhaust for my last GTO I did and at the time I remember him telling me he only sells complete systems
I think now you can get the correct hangers and clamps separately thru our sponsor or other vendors

There is a larger clamp that’s needed at the resonator. It calls for a 2-1/2” clamp.
Our sponsors only offers the “Original GM style clamp” in 2-1/4”.

I purchased and installed a complete 1966 GTO exhaust from Gardner about a year ago.
It fits like a glove. Very easy to install and looks factory.

I had 2 NOS GM resonators that I elected to use, instead of the ones Gardner sent.
The version Gardner offers are dead on to the OEM resonators.
One of my photos shows the two side by side.

Eric Gardner told me the only item he can not furnish is the Factory GM style 2-1/2” clamp.
They send a generic style clamp instead.

I would like to locate two of the OEM clamps for my car eventually.

The clamp from the original car looks a little different from the one our host sells but then it is from a photo and difficult to see. The original appears to be really rounded on the top of the clamp.
