Does anyone have, or know how to obtain a template for the non functional hood scoop for the 68 - 69 Torinos? If that's not available, are there dimensions that can be used instead? I just picked up a complete OEM unit with lights and would like to install it on my 68. Thanks in advance..

the 68-69 scoop is non-functional anyway, even with the holes cut out. I have saved the center section of my old scooped hood so I can trace the actual holes for you. Send me a private message to remind me as I am away from home for a week.

I believe I have found the correct template for this application. The seller does not indicate the vehicle type, but the template is a perfect match for my oem non functional scoop.. Purchased it and will update you on how things work out..

that just shows you the bolt holes and the turnsignal holes.... it does not show you the 4-hole oval. The oval is there regardless of whether it is a "functional" scoop or not.....

Hogfiddles.. You are correct. I was searching on line and actually saw the 4 large holes in the hood. I'm not going to cut those out. My hood is original and fits perfectly, so the mounting holes and small bulb access holes will do for now.. Thanks for the update.. Good catch..

ok, cool. If you do decide to make the rest of the cutouts, let me know. I saved the center of my old hood, so I can always trace the EXACT shapes
