!955 chevy gasser scoops lets see'em

Alright 55 chevy gasser guys, im about to try to find or fab up a scoop for my ride (Master Blaser). Please post some pics of what ya got, built, bought, stole, whatever. I want to see some traditional oldschool bad ass scoops. Please post up your pics. thanks for your help and photos...

 

Back up, to see if anyone will post pics? What do you have guys?

 

Here is mine from back in the day

 

Here is my BDS scoop. I have a couple others that have the adjustable bases (for different carb spacing), but these are made to be direct fit.,and actually lowers the scoop a bit. I also like the looks of the taller opening.

Here is the old adjustable one(on the 1st set of carbs...).

 

Best of luck with the 55 build....here's afew different hood idea's.....

 

Well, I know this one looks like a TLB scoop but it's not. It's one a friend (RallisRacing's dad) had in his attic from "back when". I guess it was a pretty common style.

A coupel I made for mine, not sure if I'll use either.

 

very cool. anyone else???

 

hears mine from the early 80's

 

Here's mine.

 

Lets see some more!

 

I don't have any pics handy, but the bolt-on,
'late-'50s-through-mid-to -ate 60's' vintage
Ford "Super-Duty" 'big-truck' hood scoops
were popular on all kinds of gassers, mod-prod
and altered-class cars 'back in day'. Pontiac
even bought these scoops from Ford - minus
the 'Ford Super-Duty-truck scoop grill assembly'
- and relabeled them with a GM part number
and used them on their '62 and '63 'Super Duty'
factory race cars.

One in my avatar and this one.

 

This was a good look in the early 70's.

 

My friend's 55 Chevy. 327, four speed, 57 Pontiac rearend, built by "Pepe", and Henry's axles. It ran low 11's. This is "THE ONE" that started it all for me. My Uncle took me to see it run at Lion's, when I was 10 years old. Been hooked since. Sorry for the crappy pictures, taken by a 15 year old, with his 110 Kodak pocket camera, in 1976. Note the "FOR SALE " sign in the window. $2000..... No way I could come up with that kind of money. I would eventually like to build a copy of it.

 

thats it?

 

Fuck me! How about a little hood with your blower.

 

Put this one on last night.
