Are you asking the scoop or hood?

Any reason not to use an OEM hood? The only aftermarket dual scoop hoods that I know of are fiberglass and not very good. Good OEM dual scoop hoods can be had in the $400-$600 range. They are not too hard to find.

I know of no metal repo hoods, yet. Any 69 Barracuda and 73 Dart hoods can easily be drilled for the scoops, the under hood notches are in them all. I have the dimensions of where the holes are drilled if needed. The 73 hood needs the hinges off the 73 car by the way.

I agree, but this is for a 73 Barracuda completely different Hood

Sorry, definitely in the wrong hood. I did see one at Carlisle, but I didn't like the fit or quality of work, I would keep looking for an original. In fact all of those body prices need work to even get close to original.
