1965 Coronet Hemi Scoop

[Wedgeamacallit]

Hello all,

Can anyone share what the best method is to keep the center of the scoop from sagging? I have been searching online to see what the best center support option will be.

Thanks

I would use a small clear acrylic rod, so it's not visible to most.

Never thought of that. Thanks

I made my own from stainless steel tubing I bought at the hardware store. I used stainless steel t-nuts and stainless button head cap screws along with stainless washers for the hardware. I polished everything up so it looked nice and shiny.

Check the factory post assembly photo. Note the small support peg front and center of the scoop. Simple remedy for sagging and strength issues.
