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.

are they the same on a ranchero?

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.
