looks like a June 17 69 rear, probably out of a 69Z (that is what most BU (3:73) rears came out of), probably not orig to the car.

I did not think the rear was original to the car. It was there when I got the car and is still working well. Drove it today some. Car codes out to a Norwood built standard 69 V8 with 711 standard black interior in 55 55 Azure Turquoise in the 32,000 sequence numbers. I'm learning on this stuff. My cowl has no X code, but I understand early 69's or before December builds did not. Does that mean there were no Z's or other ie SS etc before the X codes appeared? I know this is another question off the post topic.

Nope, Z/28 and SS were available from the beginning of the production year. It's just that the X code makes it a little easier to identify Z and SS. I say a "little" because there are lots of fake tags out there. Also X11 could be anything except SS396 and Z/28. (could be SS350, RS/SS350, RS, 6cyl, 327, 307, 350, COPO 427)

I sold a 68 BU coded rear at GM nats this year at carlisle and i couldn't sell it for $1500. I ended up giving it away for $1200 and it was super nice! cleaned and painted, new pinion seal etc.
