Was a dual scoop hood (scoops like the one pictured below) available from the factory on a 1973 Duster 340? I have a '73 340 car that has a dual scoop hood, just wondering if it was original or added later. I know the hood itself is different on the earlier '70-'72 cars.
Thanks

'73 would have had this style scoop. I believe '71 was the last for the separate twin scoops.

IIRC, the only scoop on a 73 Duster was the small 69 Cuda style on twister models.

No 340 Duster ever came with hood scoops. Only Twisters
