Default Favorite Car hoods

I did a search for this topic and nothing came up. I thought it would be fun to see what everyone's favorite hoods are from the factory or aftermarket.
I love the various types of high performance hoods from all makes and models.
From the two types of big block mid year Corvettes to the "Grump Lump" and early seventies Formula "dual snorkel".
There are so many cool hoods!
What say you?
