Why does the interior picture clearly show a cowl induction hood but the exterior shots show none?

Nice car Beebe,

Now you got me looking at my stack of receipts for replacement chrome trim and thinking the blacked out trim doesn't look bad at all. Oh well, we can't have two blue birds cruising around out here anyway.

The exterior pict. is a older shot with the formula hood and performer intake, and q-jet

The interior pict is more recent with the fibergless cowl hood, performer RPM , and holley carb
