Thanks Ed for the heads up, I might have overlooked that.

VIN IS 0Z134187, with a 1 added at the end. The poor build stamp should be P0C20B. Thanks for everybody's help. Now, where do I ask if it is it worth $500 including a Hurst Competition  Shifter??

No, a replacement like a CE block, that was his rationale for the C after the date code.

I contacted the seller, and he said that it came out of a 1970 Oldsmobile 442. He thought it was a replacement transmission.

The owner did mention that it might have been from an Oldsmobile IIR. Has a Hurst Comp + shifter too.

The owner mentioned he thought it was a replacement transmission, and that's what he thought the C meant??

i will check on the speedo location, i will have to ask the owner. in the pic, there is a faint letter after the assembly date which looks like a C to me? Maybe I'm just hoping it's a M22....

What GM model was built at a plant with a Z designation? I found a Muncie with a partial vin 0Z1434181 for sale,  and I am trying to figure out what it came out of? Thanks for the help.

Thanks for all of the responses, I was unsure about the TT and the stamp looked mangled so it raised a red flag for me, so that's why I threw it out there.

A buddy is interested in this car and I wondered what other people think of the TT and engine stamp. Thanks.

I ended up finding a local upholstery shop called Blind Squirrel upholstery in Oceanside California that did my work. Mike Stratton is the owner and I would recommend him for any upholstery work.

I would also appreciate some guidance as to how the carpet and the bottom of the panel trim out. Does the carpet go underneath the side panel? There was about an inch flap on the bottom that was left unattached and I wasn't sure if that may have been over the top of the carpet or what. Without a interior installation manual, some of this as being left to the imagination!
