Default Late 69 Camaro 10E Build Date vs Muncie Build Date

Guy's

I've committed to the purchase of a 69 Z/28 that was built 10E of 69. The engine stamp and diff align nicely with the car, and the broach marks are spot on. It has a semi legible block stamp in the rough cast that also matches the car. The transmission has what appears to be a legit VIN stamp and the only thing I am curious about is the oddly dated Muncie build stamp which is early for this car. Were the late cars (10E) known to come with transmissions built and stamped earlier than the later assembly build dates during this period.

Here are the details of the build.

Door Sticker VIN marked 11/69 with VIN ending N708XXX
Norwood Body # NOR161163 dated 10E
Engine Stamp V1021DZ Cast Date Unknown TBA
Trans Stamp P9K03A - VIN and fonts look good and last character and a box depressed under the font (deeper square box like depression unlike all the other fonts)
Diff Stamp BU 1028G1 (E under it and a stand alone 5 under the G which I've not seen before)

The VIN stamp appears good on the transmission and being a low mile car, it retains all original bolts with the data tag still on the side cover with TR bolts. I doubt it has ever been apart from the looks of it. The curious point to me is the July 3rd date which is over 90 days earlier than the cars actual build date. No docs but I'm assuming the car was built very early November. Anyone seen that spread before on a late built car?

Last 3 numbers of VIN edited out of photo's until I have possession of the car.

Thanks in advance for any info on the trans stamp...
