    i was going to be getting a mercury cougar scoop from a friend to build a comet GT but he said he wanted to make a mold of it so he could cast extras if he ever needed one for him self. thats when i suggested the idea that some of you guys may be intrested in having the correct hood scoop to make a FC comet into a GT. he's not trying to make any money off people or anything but i thought i'd pass along the info to gauge if there was any intrest. were looking at a final price of only a few bucks VS buying a $15 kit to get one piece:oops:

    Keep in mind im talking about a scoop for a MODEL CAR not a real one lol ;)

    i'll ask him what kind of price he had in mind but im sure it wouldnt be much more then whatever his coast were. he really didnt even plan on marketing them untill i suggested the idea so im sure he's not looking for a big profit lol

    anyway, hes pulling the first cast tomrrow night so i'll be sure to let you guys know how it goes

    he's also doing "steel" rims (what you get when you pop the hub caps off)
    racing seats and fule cells and is open to suggestions for other simple things people might want.
