As Michael posted, the LAT fiberglass hood scoop was fiberglass and was
attached by pop rivets to the hood when it was installed on Shelby
American's race Tiger driven mainly by the Lew Spencer (and raced once by
Ken Miles).
BTW, That actual hood and scoop was on the Tiger when Rootes passed it on to
Sports Car Forum. The hood stayed with the car after the rebuild and still
exists today (unrestored) with the Shelby yellow showing through in a few
spots.
