Nah, that scoop was the first thing to come off the Dreamsicle when I started to redo it. Took two years and several tries but it finally sold at the last swap meet we attended. Guess they're not a high demand item.

I did some serious mulling over whether to transplant the hood feature to this build. In the end, I felt it was more subtle than the cowl induction style hood I used last time, yet a step up from bone stock. It could be one of those love it or hate it things ...guess I'll find out.

I think it's going to be really cool Vic! Very unique and like you said "subtle", which I think is going to go very well with what you've done already.

Thanks, John. We've had company and only got a little done on the hood. All the dings have been worked out, welding and grinding on the front is done and I've stripped the driver side half of the hood down to bare metal. Tomorrow I'll do the other half and make the cuts to fit the hood riser. Will post some pics then. Been kinda hectic.
