Might ask around I am sure some stores near you could special order it. 
I bought a 74 Blazer recently that has not been registered in nearly 20 years. Needless to say the hood was a chore to open and closing it took multiple applications of WD-40. Now it opens and closes pretty easily but it already had the bend in it slightly.

Brad...WD-40 won't do squat...once the hood is bent it is weaker than it should be...hence the reason why he is actually asking about hood stiffeners.
I agree, WD-40 does wonders...but it won't strenghten a already weak hood....but it will prevent it on future non-bent hoods.
Special order that brah!
heheh
