Default front end that flows with cowl hood?

i saw this picture. it was from this company that makes fiberglass models of cars. not just how the cars look stock but they make models of drag cars and stuff.

but they had this one model of a ls1 camaro with it looks like a 2 or 3 in cowl hood. its not like most of the cowl hoods that are made for these cars that are a really wide cowll, its more of a cowl you would see on a first gen (if you can picture that)

but then the front end is molded on more of a slope so that it flows into the cowl of the hood.

have any of you seen this picture or can you get an idea of what im trying to explain?

i have a picture but i dont know how to post pictures so if someone wants to post it for me i can send it to you

but i was wondering if anyone makes anything like this for the ls1 camaro, because it looks really nice and i would be interested in doing it.

If the pic is one off the 'net, you just put the [img ] [/img ] (without the spaces) tags around it. If it's on your hard drive, just click on the go advanced button below the message window, and attach it.

That's the Dick Harrell limited edition built by Berger Chevrolet. They are all sold out from what I heard. Look in the October edition of Hot Rod magazine!

I just emailed Berger last week.

The cars all come with 400hp standard. Then from there they go up to a stage 2 which I believe is 475 or 495hp then you can go to a stage 3 at 630hp depending on how much you wish to spend. They are all hard tops or t-tops no convertables, the chassy could not handle the torque in a convertable. We still have 8 available and I know we have red and black left but not sure of any other colors. Do you have the latest copy of CHEVY HIGH PERFORMANCE? That has a 6 page spread on the car. If you dont have one send me your address and i`ll put one in the mail this afternoon. If you have any other questions or if I can be of further assistance to you please let me know.

nice guy and I got further $$$$$$$$ info out of him. I want one so bad lol...

Stage 1 starts out at $85k and I believe stage 2 is $98k and stage 3 is $115k. I`m pretty sure those figures are close, but when Mr Jacques returns i`ll check with him and let you know the correct figures. If you need anything else please let me know i will do what ever i can to be of assistance to you.

Those parts aren't avilable to the general public. You'll have to wait for replicas.
