Yep, no hood was a status symbol - meant you had a fast/street racer.
But if you had a big hood scoop, an arrow on the hood (aka Rambler Scrambler), blacked out headlights, and hood pins on your 1977 Caprice station wagon, and had the gonads to run a Connecticut state trooper at night in an unmarked black 5.0 Mustang, well.................. you got an a** chewing from the cop informing you that next time you need to have something bigger under the hood, and a really fat ticket to go with the car. Who knew?
