2 Different Vins.... one 1969 Muncie Transmission

[rszmjt]

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.

So what thoughts regarding the assembly stamp, first letter 'B' or modified from 'E' - given that the Norwood partial is February and the Baltimore partial June? Someone's definitely added the E at the end, but the rework theory is plausible if the trans was assembled February and was destined for a Camaro, but had to be reworked and finished up in a June Chevelle/Elky.

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