Strange looking hood scoop on 54 Kaiser

I came across a series of pictures of a ROUGH 1954 Kaiser on Ebay from French Lake Auto Parts. The attached picture shows a really strange hood scoop. Unless the hood is just bent, it looks to be almost a triangular shape. Taillights and chrome look really good--Comments?

I've seen the car and have pictures of it. It's just bent, that's all. I took a picture of it 10 years ago when I was there. It's an early Special, been there since at least the mid 1970s and it was still there as of last April

If you look under Kaiser on their Online Store--They are also parting out a 1951 Kaiser. It must be a Traveler because they are selling a lower rear hatch. Lots more pix of the 54 and the 51 inside their building, but prices seem really steep.

They still have about 20 KF products when I was there in April. I think they figured out that advertising online is more lucrative. Unfortunately, these types of salvage yards are becoming a relic.
