Most "add on" scoops were pop riveted to a steel hood. The scoop on your car did not see production until late'70 to early '71. I have an A&A ad that shows your scoop and it says "New For '71". Cap't Carls car you are referring to originaly had a "Grump Lump" scoop and later a snorkel scoop. The hood currently on his car was taken from another car. What Joe was refering to pop riveted is the actual construction of the scoop on Grumpys original prototype "Grump Lump" scoop. The sides and top etc were held together by pop rivets.
