I've got a shelby hood made by Dave Brownlow, Brownlow Performance, 604-942-6719, in Vancouver BC. I wouldn't hesitate to buy anything from him again. He is a standup honest person. My hood fit as good as a steel one. It took very little blocking and a little primer and it was ready to go. He can build you one with a steel frame or a fiberglass frame with kevlar (or carbon fiber, can't remember which) to make it stronger. I believe he does 67 Shelby fiberglass also so maybe he can do that scoop on a 65.
I wasted a ton of $ on a Branda hood that was crap. They weren't interested in hearing about any problems it had (or the side scoops). I wouldn't reccommend that route.
I'm heading out of town in morning, let me know if you would like a couple of pics and I can post them Monday.

I can't imagine how bad shipping would be from up there to Chicago.
i just got a look at a new K.A.R.S. ad, and they offer a 67 shelby style hood for the 65-66... knowing their rep, i dont think they would sell a hood the quality of most of the others out there... reenmachine could tell you for sure!
I bought StangaHolic stuff, it's relaly nice. I've always heard nothing but great things about them.
65-247...
Did you ever get that KAR Fiberglass hood? I was all set to purchase a 2 1/2 Cowl from MustangUnlimited and they were backed ordered until June.
I would love to know if you did get it and what you thought?
Also what did shipping cost.
Thanks.
