    No... cuz if i saw your car from the back i would say oh thats a nice comet and then if i saw it from the front i would say oh thats a nice maverick and if i saw it from the side i would say maverick so its more like 2/3 maverick.

    What other cars? I thought it was only on the comet GT, I know the cobra-jet style scoop was put on both the Torino and the Mustang, but I don't remember the GT scoop being shared.

    And honestly I think that car looks better with the comet scoop rather than a grabber hood with that stance to it atleast, or maybe sth's wrong with me? idk, but I'm glad y'all had fun.

    Well, one thing for sure is they do look cool, they might've been used on other cars though, because you know how interchangable parts were on Ford's were at that time.

    Since were talking about my hood scoop. Should it have a Ford part number on it?? No part numbers. Aftermarket maybe???

    Yes I do like my hood and scoop but it almost didnt go back on. The hood was questionable as to save it or not. Couldnt find a Grabber hood so we saved it. It had some nasty damage and dents on the body lines and hail damage here and there. No rust though that was the deciding factor.
