Haven't seen those in years. Had a friend that had a pair on a 69 Chevelle. I thought he was in Bruce Allen territory back then.

Let their be no doubt, that's one heck of a hood scoop! Predator carburetors. The "cave mans" flying toilet... Some history under the hood.

My first thought was "How can someone leave that out to rot?"

Very cool find.
