There were many companies making fiberglass parts in the 60s and 70s and most of them didn't put any ID on them but a few did. I have a 67-69 Camaro deck lid made by A&I and there is a card molded in with their name on it and dated 1969. It is very rough looking on the bottom. The old hoods didn't stand up very well. I talked to a guy who was the second owner of a 68 Motion Camaro and he told me that one day while running at high speed on the highway the hood split in half and flew off the car and it had hood pins on it. I have seen a few old glass hoods at swap meets and they were stress cracking and look like they got brittle with age. I don't think many of the original hoods survived.
