I have considered the scooped GTO style hood, but that doesn’t really look “right” unless I go with the Endura nose. Then I’d need the correct grills and lower valance. Suddenly it’s a big conversion project. I thought maybe the louver vents might give it the “scooped” look without totally changing the look of the car, much easier project and avoiding all that conversion bother. Not to mention all of the “Fake GTO” comments I’d have to endure.

While my gearhead neighbor really liked the look and function of the vents, my brother about had a fit saying “You’re going to cut two holes in that original 53 year old hood to put those things in?! Don’t do it!” Haha.

Okay so the vents are being returned to Summit today. Thanks again for setting me straight.

Some - 68 GTOs came w a steel bumper so the GTO 400 hood could be correct looking w a Steel bumper.
