I gagged when I saw this movie when it came out. I've not grown any fonder of the hood or the rest of the car.

I would normally jump on that like ugly on an ape, since my buddy bats wants it, I guess I will suppress the urge.

Doorgunner you have me there, i dont have a clue what Sikotik means,

Crawfish,
I do love customs,
But i would not even be able to say that if you bought me that scoop for my bday i could bring myself to run it on my car, shop art maybe.

However,
I dont hate the corvette summer front clip with a bit tamer scoop treatment,

Lots for a scoop but if hood clearance or gluing something on that could be functional knock yourself out.

For fun , to be odd, stand out,

From my understanding when the movie people asked korky to build the car they wanted a one off, a really loud in your face tacky type zenith of the custom corvettes popular in the 70s

So like it or hate it ( not much middle ground ) 40 years later its likely the most well known corvette of all time.

The right hand drive was done very low tech, a sprocket and chain drive idea that went from right side to steering box on left, it caused the column to be at a hard angle with the steering wheel in your lap, people who have say it sucked to drive it,
