Want a poll on the 442 scoops. They arent very tall, and I don't want to take away from the appearance of the truck--ya'll decide.Thanks.

Re: Should I??

i say yes because it will be the coolest hood on a 67-72 (67-68 to be exact). if you don't want to use it, i'll trade you a 72 front end for yours

Re: Should I??

You put alot of time and thought into them. I vote yes for them, but only if you want them. Remember it's your truck and the only person you have to please is you. Plus you have the brag factor of saying you fabricated them myself.

I'm not a big fan of scoops, so I wouldn't do it. But hey you know what they say about opinions

Re: Should I??

I don't like most scoops or cowl hoods, but I voted yes for those. They look great on the finished example.

I think 1 scoop looks better than 2. My 2 cents

Re: Should I??

Voted yes. Although Not my style. The craftsmanship, and the finish work will make it hot.
