Hey Bob, how are you doing?

I know that but they are putting RO scoops on sedans that never came with scoops so why can't I do the same...put a scoop on a car that wasn't manufactured with one? Looks like the same situation to me.

At least it wasn't on the hood. I've seen that quite a few times in my yute in NM.

looks like the original trunk mat on top of the trunk panel to protect the paint! and aren't those red line [stripe] snow tires?

I believe the NHRA recently changed the rules and made the 1969 camaro remove them if it didn't come from the factory.

Bad enough it's the wrong body style, 1966 nothing MOPAR made from the factory came with a scoop NOTHING!!! Jim does NHRA know this? Didn't they just take scoops off of the camaro that did not come from the factory.

Correct, Frank. For moment I was thinking Jere Stahl's '66 Plymouth championship car had a scoop,, but I googled some photos, and they all showed NO hood scoop! Dang! Its tough getting old,, I suffer from CRS syndrome!!
