Re: Stingray style hood
Would be interesting to see.
I recall back in the seventies and eighties there was a fibreglass manufacturer here in Melbourne making bonnet scoops and corvette style scoops that bolted / fitted to the original bonnet. This guy did the mods to the cars in Mad Max.

Re: Stingray style hood
I don't know who may have 1 but are you looking for the small block hood or the big block hood? They are very differant.

Re: Stingray style hood
Small block stinger hood? I didn't know that existed, I thought they were 427 only.

Re: Stingray style hood
Small blocks didn't have the scoop, just a stinger, wonder if there's been a PhotoShop of a 67-72 with stinger n scoop, seen a 60-66 with one but not a 67-72.
Edit: was looking for the big block one.

Re: Stingray style hood
Thanks! I guess I've seen both before but didn't realize the scoopless version was the stinger style less the scoop part.
Just a though, but I don't know if our hoods are long enough for a full stinger to look right; the Vette had a long front deck. But it was a smaller car overall to begin with. Just something to keep in mind. The L88 and L82 hoods aren't bad either.
