I sent some shots to Marlin including one taken at the same angle as the proto car. From that angle it doesn't look like they're open either as you're looking into the roof of the scoop.Also the nova hood rib matches perfectly with the rebel application.
I'm not sure we'll ever know for sure which is right unless someone comes up with a through the windshield shot from the prototype. Or the prototype surfaces. Unfortunatly we can't ask Don. Rob,pm me your address. I'll send you some on the car shots.
