They definitely would not fit the Hella's as they are larger than the Marchal's.
I wonder if the lettering on them was molded or if it was a decal. If it was just a decal, then you could easily make reproductions of them by using the Marchal's covers, painting them the correct color and applying a reproduction decal or transfer. Of course they wouldn't be worth what the originals were but you they could temporarily fill that "hole" in your display case until you find the real thing. :-)

That definately HAS the scoops!! (also has the ascmclaren fog lite covers! black plastic with orange raised letters. I was told (??) that they did not use them as they were to fit the Ford Marchal fogs. See, they are mounted where FORD mounts them, not on the otter edge when asc put the Hellas. They were said to not fit the Hellas, but Sandy continues to look for them and will pay thru the nose for them.
