I scored a functional '70-'72' Trans Am hood scoop at a swap meet long ago. Or so I thought. Research revealed it to actually be for a '74 GTO. They had the functional hood scoop too one last time. I guess it was to say farewell to the GTO. It had a WOT vacuum triggered electrical solenoid that yanked the scoop open. It did not fit my '77 TA so since I had spent a LOT on it I decided to take a '77 TA 400 scoop base and wed the functional scoop to it. That worked out great. I even covered the flap with engine turned TA dash looking decal. Looks sharp. I'm sure It would be worth even more today as a GTO scoop but what is done is done. Now the TA is gone and I have the scoop sitting down the basement as a conversation piece. I wonder what I can use it on?
