Here are the measurements I got on the forum some time back. But I'm not sure it will give you what you need. You may have to find one in your area and see if you can get the actual measurements you want.

yes i cam across this picture and i have about 15 diff printouts of it trying to get dimensions.. anit has helped me out alot.. from what i came up with the camaro and monte are very close in size.. seems ithe camaro is 2 inches wider (i know the bumper will have to be cut down just a tiny bit..i also plan on cutting down the back side of the camaro bumper and molding the top middle portion to my hood line or maybe cuting back fenders and shaping hood like the camaros.. but any sizes and dimensions will help me out greatly.. i would like to find out b4 i buy new $390 front cover from dealer.. thank you

Well I think the el Caminos form 78 on were considered G bodies also, at least that is what I was told... here is my Elky, it was the cover car for the G-Body Forum Calendar in 2008
