AirGrabber hood on a Fury???

[Mr C]

Here's an interesting home-made Fusey air scoop treatment. The advantage is that it's all-steel. All you need is an aftermarket Barracuda hood to chop up.

I generally don't like hood scoops on C bodies, but I ran across this and thought I'd share it as another option. This guy did a good job on the body work.

I could absolutely do that on a Fusie. The lines work perfectly with the car.

I am doing this on my 69 ..................

No No No No No No. A Chrysler 300 is not a Plymouth Barracuda. It has a wide expanse of sheet metal due to the design and is perfect when left alone. No need for hood scoops. Leave that to the A/E/B crowd.

I like many of them, its when everyone does it that it looses its flavor

That Cuda hood looks interesting, but I agree it is out of place. I would love to do a hurst hood in B7 for the 300. No stripes, just plain.

Since it's already been done, as soon as the second guy does it, it's old.

No......you know better

Nostrils on a 71' fuselage car look very wrong IMO. Just looks like E body envy. Get a Cuda if that's what you want, don't mess up an otherwise perfect hood.

Who has an e body here? Raise your hand?............

I don't know whose car this is, bout this looks like a cool setup:

Thought about it for the 300 with a card board mock-up:

^ not really liking the B/A scoops on that 300. I agree with many that these cars just look weird with them. Having said that, I thnk the 65/66 Furys can pull off the max wedge scoop look.

To each his own.....go for it. Maybe even make them functional.

I would fiberglass over the cardboard to make them a tad waterproof :yes_no:ops: ..:laughing7:

I had E-Bodys (71 Cuda, Challenger RT). Does that count, too?
But they are small and are like a plastic bath inside

Just pointing something out, it was somewhat rhetorical...
