Now this is a new one for me. Bought this greasy thing that's been sitting for decades.

ive actually had a couple of them like that. first one I saw was around 81 and I pulled it out of a firebird that was in a salvage yard. no body was restamping anything like that back then especially to put in a plain firebird. always wandered why.

Second partial probably added at the same time someone put the 'E' after the factory M21 assembly stamp.

The 9N558896 2 is a really bad restamp , individual hand stamped. LOL even has too many characters.

the chevelle vin is a 06B build, the first B looks like it might have been an E at some point which would fit better for a june chevelle build but i guess anything is possible. thanks for posting.

Crazy Matt. Thanks for sharing.

Rszmjt,

What do you mean by too many characters?

Not only that - but it would be impossible for the same transmission to be installed originally at two different assembly plants (Baltimore and Norwood).

Here's an interesting 68 transmission. Sorry for the editing. Not mine!!

I wonder if possibly it was a re work piece. I've had blocks that had nbrs that didn't match up with the cast dates. Bad pieces weren't fixed on the line and replaced on the car. Our bad parts went to the re work area, and they got to it whenever.

That's what I'm thinking - rework. Parts were returned to the source plant for repair.

That NOR stamp was hit at an angle. I have others like it.
