There was a fiberglass Dealer shroud available which was recommended for trailer reasons.
I have this Dealer shroud #9774621 on my 66 GTO.
This is spelled out on page 366 of the Restoration Guide.
My two cars are Factory Original including the fan and OEM clutch and they both measure (4 inches) from radiator core to front of fan metal hub.
I agree that the shrouds help with cooling these cars down.

Guess I should have waited til I got home and consulted the Restoration Guide before implying all cars had shrouds though it's true most I've seen had one.
Anyway, measurement from the face of my fan clutch to radiator is only 2 inches and 3 1/2 inches from fan hub to radiator.
