I think the cowl induction is a good look...and it's functional too.
Ya know what else is functional? The Ford reverse-tear drop hood. I'm all for someone adapting that to a Dart or a Roadrunner or a Chevelle...BUT if someone wanted to try this, it would do a person well to know that real car people will see a Ford styling element and may have questions. Since styling is something that's intended to be seen and make an impression, this is to be expected...and it's totally fine.
