unusual hood idea/question .. w/in

I had this really interesting idea..

If you were to take the headlights off of a firebird (like remove them) could you put a camaro hood on it? I want my car to look like this:



Would a camaro hood work or would I have to use a firebird hood and weld in two square pieces?

the camaro hood doesnt slope down like a firebird front end.. so it wont work.. you would have to weld in the pieces.

I was afraid of that.. the bitch is that I couldn't just weld in the headlight cover pieces because there's too much gap there, I'll have to cut new pieces to weld in.. and I don't even want to picture what I'd have to go through to mod a fiberglass hood to do that..
