Wanted, cowl hood template...

Not sure if this belong here but I'd like to do some experimenting and I need a template of the side of a cowl hood scoop.
Anybody have time and patience enough to make me one?
Willing to pay a reasonable sum if necessary.

Hey Rick,
Did ya get the "cab" alright?

Here's the area I'm lookin for, kinda sorta outlined in red...I'm not good with paint.



I've had this idea in my head for years now. I'm not sure I have the skills to do it but I want to try.
I want to use a stock hood and cut a "slice" right along where the side of the cowl scoop would be and then raise the center piece of the hood and weld in fabricated vertical pieces for the sides.

Am I crazy? Can it be done?
Hell, the fun is trying anyway, right?

Yep, the addy on the cab is correct.
LMK if I can send funds for paper,time, whatever.


I've got an extra hood off of a Cavalier I'm planning to try this on.
If it works out I'll try some others, (72 and 93), and post some pics. If it doesn't work I'm not posting pics....LOL

I appreciate the help. Thanks.
