Best place for scoops

Who has the widest selection for hood scoops? every time i look somewhere new they always seem to have the same stuff.
It's always fun until someone loses an eye. then it's fun ya can't see.

This place has lots of them but I don't know about a 68 Cougar.

The one I put on mine was the SC-124.  Fit the hood good but I did not like the mounting and made my own.

not looking for anything even remotely that extreme. if i can't find a 68 cougar scoop clone then i may just go with a boss 429 scoop.

looks like that site just deals with original parts maybe. the 68 cougar hood was all 1 piece. the scoop was not seperate. that's why i had to find a cougar resto shop. cuz not everybody can have a 1968 Cougar XR& GT-E, but everybody wants one. they were the cobra of cougars, until the eliminator came along.

specifically i was looking for a REPRODUCTION of a 68 cougar scoop. an original was impossible cuz it wasn't a seperate part. finally found it at west coast classic cougar and when i get my tax returns i might just have it.

FYI, I talked with them about making a custom hood.  They will take any hood they make and combine it with any scoop they have, assuming similar materials.
