Help with some fiberglass parts identification?

I bought these fiberglass panels for cheap but I am not sure what company made them and not for sure but think they are for a 73-87 Chevy truck.

Have you guys ever seen anything like these before?

I would like to fix up a 73-87 truck one of these days and if these are in fact for this application it might have been a good score...

So anyone know what the heck I have here and who made them?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot.

The front fenders look like 73-80 to me.

Fenders...box sides....hood front repair panel....cab corners....rocker panels.....with those and a bit of epoxy you can cover up the rust on your 73-80 truck.

See if you can find any marks or logos on them?

Hi guys, I had a better look at them and no there is no markings... I will hang onto them and look for a 73-80 truck that is solid but dented or surface rusted.

Maybe its just the angle, but the front fender openings look larger than stock. It looks like prerunner/desert racer style fenders to me.

I'm trying to understand why the front edge of the hood and the rockers and cab corners pieces made in fiberglass.
