Wow I'm jealous. I'm also looking for a good used GM hood. Are there any numbers stamped at the rear drivers corner, fender side ?
I am going to pick up some paint stripper and check that area I have read the other tell tale signs are if the bump stop circles have 3 tack welds In a triangle shape and if the rear corners and kinda cut at a strange angle. This hood has both those if I could find a stamp I would be pumped as those actually came off the assembly line.

Yes, absolutely correct. Good luck.

thanks guys, so I had a little more time to fit the wheels today and noticed that with the front wheel secured it pops the center cap out. They were built for my baer brake package so i am not sure why they keep popping out the center cap.
Was told it came off a 69 camaro pace car and still has its original paint. not sure it is true still trying to research
It's hard to say definitively, however the rear corners near the hood hinge have me thinking this is a reproduction. An example of the differences can be found here
That being said, being a reproduction is certainly not a bad thing if it fits. I've seen people spend just as much time fitting a NOS hood.
