Does this hood exist?

I know I've seen a few knock-offs, but the original hood from the prototype ZL-1 just does something for me. http://www.kleverblogs.com/dsmcclint...2000%20ZL1.jpg

Not the exact one, but here's the DG Motorsports knock-off.

Yes, I ve seen that one, but the scoop is not as tall and it has the ripples to match the LS-1 style head lights. The ZL-1 scoop looks like it is about 1 1/2" ro 2" tall and even though it has an LS-1 style nose clip, the hood is flat with no ripples. I believe the actual ZL-1 protype was originally an LT-1 Camaro, then they changed the nose clip and left the hood.

That's doubtful considering I believe that car is a 2000...

Look at the hood though. One, there's no curves like on a regular 98+ hood. Considering people do the 93-97 to 98-02 conversions and that only requires front bumper, fenders, and hood to match the 98+ style, you don't have to change the hood latch location, so the hood actually would be interchangable, it just not might line up perfectly with the headlights, otherwise the bumper theoretically should be in the same position where it meets the hood.

My information comes from various threads I've found on this site while I've been trying to track down this hood. So I have no idea if it's true or not, but I found that the car was "released/shown" to the public in 2000 as a 2001 concept ZL-1. The history of the car supposidly starts with an pre-1998 LT-1 which was modified to what we see. Either way, no one makes this exact hood
