You're on your own.
Hard enough to find any stock hoods. Nobody that I know of has bothered to make any alternatives, and I've looked.

US body has fiberglass hoods. http://www.usbody.com/Pages_Trucks/61-Ford.htm
they probably have 69 Camaro cowl scoops too if you look hard enough, Then you just mate them up I guess, but the lines on a slick hood don't really blend well. Here's a better alternative..

I don't think that's Johnny's truck.

The US Body website says you can add a scoop to their hood for as little as $50. But the link to a pick doesn't work for me...

I saw in a mgazine where someone had taken a hood off of a late 80s Mustang and grafted the raised cowl onto the 60s hood. It went in where the recess is on our hoods and looked really good. I wish I had pics. If I find the old magazine I will let you know where it was. It was shown in Custom Classic Trucks several years ago.

Here is the thread on Ryan's 65.
If you PM him he may be able to give you some more info on his scoops. May take abit before he gets back to you, he is in college and pretty busy.
