Re: Plexiglass scoop
I've always thought those were self made custom jobs. For those guys that wanted to see past a Tunnel Ram scoop when driving.

Brent, two companies made clear plexiglass scoops for tunnel rams back in the day. There were small bubble type scoops made also. One was Northeast Performance out of NY. Made a large grump lump in clear, smoke, blue, green, red and orange. The other one was PSP which made scoops in clear and smoke. here is a picture of the ad. The candy red/blue Nova pics I posted has a PSP scoop on it and his friends early Nova has one as well. I had a green Northeast scoop at one time. I have never seen another NP other than mine nor a PSP scoop ever. I seriously checked into having these scoops made from my green NP scoop. For starters the plexiglass was 1/4 thick (but when vacuum formed went to 3/16)and several companies that I contacted that could vacuum form this thickness wanted something like $300-350 each and that was not covering the material which is very expensive in 1/4" form. They also wanted to do something like 75-100 minimum because these companies do 500-2000 vf's per day and did not want to stop their lines. |

Here is the Northeast Performance scoop-about 8" tall and 1-2 inches longer than the A&A scoop

Re: Plexiglass scoop
I would like to put one on Benjamin's Nova as well, but was planning on just making one like Howie did for his Camaro. I didn't know of these 2 companies that used to make them, interesting.....
Here is one from a Camaro:

</div></div> Speed equipment and how it was utilized was very regional based back in the day. NY and the east was very influenced by the drag look while out west it was more Trans AM/road race influenced. Guages for instance. East coast and midwest guys would commonly run them around the steering column or on the cowl of the car but out west they would insert them in the dash of the car...not all cases of course but that was the trend. The plexiglass scoops was definitely a NY/east coast trend.. |

Re: Plexiglass scoop
Agree 100% on the cowl gauges - everyone seemed to have 'em back in the mid '80's. I love 'em - Benjamin's car will have them too! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
