Here are some pics of his work making templates and building the custom hood:

You will notice that the rib that runs down the center of the valance panel and hood were also removed to make the new hood look like it belongs. We're really happy with the way it turned out.

Next he tackled the core support cover. Here is the rendering he started with:

That is awesome! I was wondering how long it would take for somebody to put that ZL-1 hood on a 69 Camaro. Its going to look fantastic!

Agreed Marty, that is an awesome mod.

The '69 Camaro...still evolving. :D

Check out the revised Dan Steinhauser (http://www.steinhauserdesign.com) rendering of Lou's Change reflecting the design of the hood. Looks killer.
