    Came off a 71 gt with a factory v8 and 3 speed manual car. The guy only had the hood and engine tranny combo. He wanted $100 for the engine but some one else had already said he was going to buy it. I would have taken the engine if I could have. But still pretty excited about the hood. The hood itself is junk but its got a good gt scoop. I have been looking for one for years.

    I would consider the scoop well worth the 20 bucks by itself :thumbs2:

    Those scoops typically sell for over $200 if in good shape .... there are Cougar guys and others that can use that too in their restos. If you take the scoop off, there is likely three different part numbers embossed in the inside surface. Nice score!

    Interesting panel paint on that hood, coming to a point like that.

    I like the point I think I might reproduce it on my hood. Yeah I know they go for $200 that's why I was so freaking excited to get one.
