What Am I? A Thing
It is Monday morning in cyberspace, so time for Fleetwood T Brougham to solve DT’s What Am I? puzzle as he has done for the past few weeks. I think this one is a real doozy, humdinger, the cat’s pajamas — so surprise me, solve the riddle.
What car are we looking at? Comments below.
that's… that's…

Any guesses? Need a hint?
Is it a VW Thing? I've got nuffin.
Not a people's car.
It's the inside of some kind of outside piece, held in place by a bunch of studs and nuts. That's about as far as I'm going with it.
Some sort of trunk lid reinforcement?
I see the letters W-e-s… it's a Westfalia – maybe
I really thought it was the outside of an inside piece, like a cover over where the thingamajig goes through if you order the Performance Sunroof and Refrigerated Glovebox Summer Fun Package
Under things of some kind of intake on a hood….
Yes. It is the underside of a hood.
Some kind of cooling ductwork on the inside of the engine access hatch of a VW Westfalia. I think the black pins hold on the Volkswagen badge onto the other side of the hatch…
I need hints! It looks like some sort of vent under the hood of a truck or maybe under the floor pan or a car. Make and model…stumped.
1) are there two?
and
2) this is the passenger side?
Yes — there are two and this is on the passenger side.
Some kind of undercarriage nubbin array and drip pan? I say Ice Cream Truck.
Its gotta be a 1971-73 Mustang with Ramair option. Photo below at this link: 2.bp.blogspot.com/-mGi9hM9N-g0/Ul4TCtEmtpI/AAAAAAAAELw/NbJwQuCE7mA/s1600/1971-ford-Mach-1-one-owner-grabber-green-351-ram-air-hood.jpg
At first I was thinking big flat truck hood, but only the modern ones have vents or scoops. And the modern ones have all sorts of reinforcements. So I thought vintage, white, dual scoops, ram air….and the Mustang came up.
I await the praise and glory!
Praise!
Glory!
Picture!

Praise Yeebus and the gods of the stamping dies.
DonS — great job!! It is indeed a pic of the underhood of a 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 — find it here on eBay with 2 hrs to go.

Can I at least tell my Mom I got partial-credit?
allmychildren — Yes! But only if your Mom drives a Mach 1.
