Hooded '69 Wagon below was somewhere on F-book recently.

I'm just waiting for Lee to measure up the length and then I'm ordering one of his.

This is the plan.

Had one on my 70 chevelle. It was a really light weight lift off and I think it was also a moroso hood. Wish I still had it. Got lost in a move somehow.

Just acquired this vintage moroso. Part # 7919. This is their 5” version made for a single plane/single carb intake

.:biggthumpup: The mans got more hoods than socks.!.

As an aside, I have taken an existing "lift off" hood and converted it to "bolt on".

I had a previous flat fiberglass bolt on hood on my Chevelle, and went to the lift off to save some weight (steel hood = 80 lbs; bolt on flat hood = 40 lbs; lift off = 20 lbs).

I retained the hood hinges and then added a spacer/adapter (square aluminum tube in my case), and then Dzus'd the lift off hood to these adapters. That way if I'm alone, or for most of my usage, I simply lift the hood on the hinges normally. If the going gets tough then I undo the four Dzus fasteners holding the hood to the hinges and set it aside.

FWIW - in case you can tolerate the visual aspect. Or - you could certainly create an adapter that is visually less crude.

It's also "backwards compatible" in case I want to revert back to one of the earlier hoods.

Old 69 SS 396 Camaro near where I live. It has since been sold and restored back to 100% stock

I recently picked up an NOS Moroso lightweight hood for a first Gen Camaro. It has a 7” high scoop. The part number is 7929. It’s really kewl…..I have it on display in my garage.

I had a lot of people on Facebook comment on it!!!

I'd like to find one of these too. I had a tunnel ram on my car for about a month, but I couldn't find a hood, so I took the TR off and went back to the single 850. Speedway has this one. I wonder how close it is to the Moroso hood scoop. https://www.speedwaymotors.com/Pro-S...x-7,39242.html

Anyone know if there is a source for these hood locks ? I put a set on my '70 SS Chevelle after people stole my battery and tried to get the carb too in 1974. I thought the hood looked cleaner with these than the pins...

I've got a set of them somewhere. I was going to use them on my hood, but then I didn't trust them to keep it closed and went with pins.

If you happen to find them, Freddie, I'd be interested buying them, if you want to sell.

That’s got to be an old hood I dont think moroso has been in a Greenwich Cf in a long long time, they are in north haven or Branford or something

The typical set up was a pan that went under the carbs w a seal to the hood around it

If those don’t work out for you call bill foss at driving image in Unionville CT , he’s been in the aftermarket parts business forever. He used to run a PCA years ago in the 80s he’ll know who made them and if they still do.

any more pictures of this car?

I did pick up a vintage scoop, I'll eventually work with Glasstek to fab up a bolt-on hood for my car.

The locks are likely cal custom
. They pop up NOS from time to time.

Cheap. Your welcome.

Jason

Too late & no I didn't buy it....Joe

That hood looks great on a ‘69 Camaro……. :beers:

What is funny it's actually a Mopar scoop called the "Baughman Layer" or something like that for the Chrysler engineer who designed it.
Back then no one cared. Everyone installed what they liked. My Mustang had a grump lump, the brown 69 Daytona ISCA show car had an L-88 scoop.
Just as you see every non GM car today with some form of GM cowl scoop.

Well, since I don't get notifications of posts to threads, I just saw this now. Yep, I would have bought it, but thanks for thinking of me and posting...:biggthumpup:

Would these work?

Always loved that '73 Motion Camaro. Badass car and the hood is killer.

I bought this car brand new as a 396/325. Was a race car most of its life.

----Always like seeing pics of your Camaro, Sal. Do you still have that pristine Suburban? My dualie Subby bit the dust in a shop fire, but I found another of the same year with super low miles. Mosyly only use it to drag boats out of the water,,,LOL!!!....Bill S

Great action photos Sal.:burnout:

I just came across this vintage pic of a Z11 with a pin-on moroso hood.

Interesting to see no engine callouts. I can only assume the cars doghouse was replaced/repainted.
