Looking for a high(er)-rise hood for my '76. I really like the one on the cover of the Spring 2017 Corvette America catalog. It looks like stock except just a little higher without all the frills. Nice and simple with just a little extra clearance. I love the look of this one. Does anyone know which hood this is and where I can find one for a '76? Is it a stock hood for the early model C3's, or is it an aftermarket? I've been looking, but can't find this hood.
The hood in your pic is the 68-69 L-88 style hood. It could be original and the car might be an L-88, but since I do not see a wiper door, I'd say it was aftermarket.

It looks like the aftermarket long hood version of the L-88 that eliminates the need for the wiper doors.
Its sure no L88 but not really a common cowl either,
Look at the front, the style line and the way it looks like an old street rods 2 piece windshield,
This might be a one off made by the builder as i can find one on google with the front styling, but something looks oddly familiar to me, hum,
