That scoop looks great, kind of mimicks the grill. Everything looks pretty square.

That's the factory scoop found on old Super Duty's
Here's an old photo of one


I posted this before somewhere, but here is the scoop, it has the same grooves on top as the hood. Mine is a new old stock one with the chrome metal grille on it.

Going to go check this one out today! Just not for the whole truck, says he has a nice cab and some nice extra body parts.
Seller says also included is the original 352 and C6. Seller is clueless.

352's were not installed in F100/350's until 1965 (1965/67), C6 not available in F100/350's (and then only with 360/390's) until 1968.

1957/60 F100's came with either the 223 I-6 or the 292 2V, 3 speed M/T, 3 speed O/D, or Ford-O-Matic.

That is why good deal are out there sometimes! Some folks just repeat the numbers they have heard before and don't really take the time to know what they are talking about.

Just picked these up, still need those pesky inserts (never seen the 477 engine stamped into the tail "fin", but looks cool):

And found some of these to replace the rusty Super. Polished up as good as new:

I love those 477's!! Not really a commonly found item around these parts. They sure cleaned up nice.
