  1. The cool hood scoop is actually from a large series Ford truck.

    1. I have seen the same, or similar, scoop on the big Ford trucks, but I believe they are Cal Custom scoops. One was on the Shelby transporter truck http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2017/01/a-load-of-used-tires-and-cobras-after.html and http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/11/sad-news-to-report-mopar-museum-of-tim.html
      and this sure looks to be a lot smaller than the scoop on the Shelby truck, so, don't you agree after looking at those truck you refer to, and I've linked to so you can look at them again, that it's highly unlikely that this scoop is, as you insisted, off a large Ford truck?
      In fact it looks exactly like the scoop on the Rambler that I posted yesterday on the Australia rally

    1. I've posted that junkyard find Ford truck scoop too. But you're wrong, twice. Take a better look, at the SHAPE of this car's scoop, then compare it to the fat low simple Ford scoop.
