Trying to find a certain hood: I saw a Camaro('01/'02) with a hood that resembled the WS6 hood?
Also, I have a question that I have always wondered......
What does Z28, Z06 and GTO stand for???? Maybe I'm just a jackass

GTO is a model name. I could tell you what it stands for, but don't ask me to spell it.
I'm sure someone else can provide spelling.... 
something like Gran Tourismo Omalagoto???

Omalagato - for "homologation" (as in racing homologation - where a manufacturer has to build a certain number of a car to make it legal for a certain race series).
Pontiac stole the name from Ferrari.
Ferrari built their GTO to qualify for racing series, the Pontiac just uses the name. The idea was that Pontiac's GTO was supposed to be as good as the Ferrari, which also led to the bogus/controversial Car and Driver article proclaiming that the Pontiac romped on the Ferrari and turned in a high 11 second time slip in the 1/4. The Pontiac was definitely a ringer, and there may have been some data fudging.
