I know , another "what is it ?" thread..

I found this in a '57 150 I bought the other day , I never saw one of these , looks cool , can anynody identify it?

 

Kinda sorta looks like the scoop off the hood of a big Ford truck.

 

aftermarket 55-57 t bird style scoop? jc whitney ect

 

That's what I think it is, pretty sure I've seen one before, although without the louvers. Bolt-on accessory type deal.

 

how have you survived on here with that name Ratroddude?

 

Because he always has something cool like this to share,usually its a whole car

 

have you looked at how many here have ratrod in their screen names?

 

dont know where or what it is but theres a young guy around here that has one just like it (except rusty and no louvers) on his 66 comet gasser its riveted to his hood

 

Aftermarket from JC Whitney.....definately NOT a Ford truck scoop.

 

Someone even posted a scan of an old JC Whitney add that had them in it a few years ago.

 

Just like Low Budget and Chisntx said , its just a name , I have a passion and a drive for pre 64 cars , and unlike you , I don't ask stupid questions not relative to the topic on the thread , that being said , thanks for the back up Low Budget and Chrisntx , I have thought about starting a thread about changing my name , you know , Converting over a rat....I saw a thread a while back about a guy Changin' a rat rod to a hot rod , mabye it'll work for a name , I just dont want to loose my senior member status , and plus , everyone has come to know me by this name...I guess it's gonna be hard to change....
