Default 1969 Camaro wire gutter

Does anyone know if this wire gutter is GM or reproduction? This one has ribs that run horizontally across the entire gutter. I’m not familiar with these. I tried to include pics of these “ribs”. The gutter is 13 inches long. Thanks

The repros don't have the reinforcing ribs, all smooth. Any numbers or cymbals on the back side ?

I have too much crap on the hood of mine to look. I looks like the one from my '66 Chevelle.

No numbers or cymbals that I can see just thicker reinforcing ribs horizontally where the bolt holes are.

Default Gutter

On the top picture, the far right is a reproduction. The left and center were the originals.

The 13 inch long gutter with ribs from the original post is the factory 69 Camaro gutter.

I think Chevelles also had this same gutter.
