Default 70 L-78 Camaro Cowl Plenum?

Volo has gorgeous looking L-78 '70 Camaro (god I love those!) w/ a cowl plenum setup. Anyone ever seen one of these?

Link to car at Volo

It'd be nice to see a posted pic of the trim tag also. VERY nice looking car in any event.
It looks like it may be the yellow one posted on the Mecum site in '04-05.

This car had been shown and talked about before, but I couldnt find it in searching www.nastyz28.com.
I'm absolutely certain that the above aircleaner was not factory 70 Camaro. I'm thinking somebody else suggested this was fabricated using Chevelle components or ???
Waiting for others to chime in......

Where is the Trim Tag Picture? I asked for a picture of it a while ago and Never Received a
response of any kind.
This Car was supposed to go through BJ Scottsdale in 2004, I looked “Real Hard” for this car
so I could check out a few things but it Never went through. Something is Fishy about this
car…………. “Buyer Beware”!!!!!! That Air Cleaner does NOT belong on any Sec Gen Camaro
that I know of, Although I must admit that it is a good idea…

When Chevy got rid of the Camaro Cowl Hood at the end of the '69 model year that idea would have been the way to go and worth at least 10 HP.

Note: John Delorian said the Cowl hood on the 70 Camaro "looked like a coffin" so the idea was nixed from the factory.
