Welcome.  Hogfiddles has one, and Cobra Joe just added one to his car.  You can see the pics in his thread:

   Send a pm to Hogfiddles. He may be of help as he is with most everything.
   Welcome. You will find this site is nothing like facebook etc. Infighting is like hens teeth.

Dave/hogfiggles,

Can you make another a tracing from your hood template for myself?  My car has the scoop, but no cut outs.  Best I can tell it was in an accident in '75 as the splash shield still has a label from the period (and fenders have p/n painted on them like NOS have).  Thanks.  Can send SASE as needed with postage applied.

I can do better than that—I can make a tracing right from my hood for you.  I HAVE a ford template, but I ALSO have the center section of my original ‘69 hood that was rousted out all the way around the edges…….I cut out the center section to use as a template long before I got the paper one:)

Send me a private message.

Dave,
Where in New York are you? I have forgotten.
If not far from Lebanon Valley I may have to visit this summer. I am still finding Gran Torino stuff. Nothing big but I have no use for it. Not into selling on facebook etc.

Ray, I went in and updated your profile so you can post now. Welcome to the forum. As far as the template goes, a few guys here should have the file for your shop to use.

Hi there!

My name is Rico and I’m new here in this forum. I’m from Germany and I own several vintage U.S. cars, among other things a 1968 Ranchero. I just bought a hood scoop and now I’m looking for measures or a template to drill the holes into the hood. Actually, it would just help to get some measures how the scoop is located on the hood in relation to the edges. That way I could make a template myself. Using Google I found that thread and this forum. Thanks to let me in here! I’d like to add a pic of my Ranchero but I didn’t find out yet how to add a pic Confused



Greetings from Germany
Rico
