Well, it's not a T/A anyway. The U87 says it's a Formy. I myself do like the way the shaker and Formy scoops look together, even if they don't serve a purpose. I loved Ponch's car and the one from Corvette Summer. Just with they had done the shaker right.

Just not for me! Too much going on at one time! one or the other is great.

No hood scoop showing, so I wonder if there is even an engine inside.
Usually, you see something showing in the hole. ;)
Looks like T-Tops as well.
Reminds me of my 1972 Firebird.
I like the paint.

Warbird, if you're referring to the last one I posted, that's probably a pretty nice car.  It appears to have been in California a long time and that means it's most likely rust free.  Someone did quite a bit of work on it.  The engine is partially disassembled so that's why the shaker isn't on.

Yep,
That's what I was talking about.
I agree, I think it is nice.

I would like to see the underside structure of that hood to see what it looks like and how they did it.  If it was a cheap hack job or not.
