Year One has the bonnets for around US445 on ebay & they take credit cards and post stuff to Australia.. great deal, but gotta add a coupe of bucks for post http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/70-81-Camaro-Steel-Cowl-Induction-Hood-YearOne-

The Booster or Master for the Chevelle.. easy.. about $170 - Ebay. or Original Parts Group for about $180 and a few dollars for delivery, CHEAP.... or use HQ.

For general Camaro parts (not sure about 4" hoods), I like to use Classic Muscle.
Their prices are very good, their parts are generally more correct and accurate, and doing business with them is easy.
I email them a list, they reply with a what's in and what's not in stock (95% is in stock) and I go ahead with the order.

Rick`s has been a PIA for me just fyi, very very slow on delivery but I have been told there is new management in so everyone deserves a chance I guess

Eckler's bought Rick's but it's not like they are new to the mail order parts game. It surprises me how often I hear people saying what you've just said about them.

Hope they are not those CI bonnets ex Taiwan with the wavy & sunken centres, as people here know there are good quality and outright bad quality of those. booetemup's offer is good but be aware & check the return policy but that is a good price. A friend in Canberra a couple of years back could not get his to seat low enough around the headlamp hump. Maybe get booetemup to check it out first.
