Default Help With a Z Cowl Paint Photo

Hey,

I could use more help with a high-res photo. I'm looking for an image of a first gen Z28 Camaro cowl with the stripe color on the top of the cowl. Thanks to Super Car Workshop and Arone Auto Body, I already have one image of a Z11 with the smaller cowl paint around the cowl openings. The image I need is of a Z10, Z11, or Z28 cowl the the stripe color all the way across the cowl...from the pinchweld on the left tulip panel to the pinchweld on the right tulip panel.

Can anyone help me? It needs to be high-res...at least 2MB and approx 2560x1920.

If you don't have a good shot all the way across, maybe just a close-up of the pinchweld on one side will work.

Thanks,
Tony Huntimer

Norwood didn't paint Z11's (or Z28's) like that, they had a smaller mask that extended about 2" outside the cutouts into the wiper well. Los Angeles built cars had the cowl paint that extended pinchweld to pinchweld, so you'll need a picture from an LA built car.

I searched the Carlisle thread from this year and didn't find any pictures of Camaros...only some of a couple of people and an overhead map.

Glad to see that picture of the 67 LOS Z28 cowl paint. That is how my LOS 68 Z was before restoration. Problem is every time I say that is the way mine was I seem to be corrected by people that never seen the area before restoration.

that is the original paint under the black paint that was applied by one of the owners.you can see where the red paint is also under the black paint.the other side is the same.I would guess they used some sort of stencile just to lay over the edge and did a qiuck white spray paint on the top.This is a white stripe car also with bolero red paint RR code.
