Yes, that's Stan's new creation.  I love '57's. Don't really care for '58 hoods, but the rest is nice.  There's been pics on his site for a while.

No love for the '58 hood?  I would love to have one if I could find one.

I agree, I loved the car since LOTD showed me the pics at NDSRA. But the '58 hood doesn't flow with the rest of the car.

The difference between the '57 and '58 is the hood scoop, and I think the front filler piece too.  

Heres the interior shot I got:

'57's have a completely flat, smooth hood with a raised rib across the rear edge to meet the cowl grille. See pic.

Here's the link to Stan's pics of the car from start to finish:

Actually there is a very slight peak down the center of the 57 hoods.  Not noticeable from a distance but up really close you can see it.
