question on the 69 Cutlass'

I just bought a 69 Cutlass convertible. I was told it had a W-32 pkg by the seller which Olds forum member Badd Andy advised me that the vin indicated it couldn't be so and he is right.
The vin is 36679Z105071 and the engine block number by the oil fill is 395558 indicating a small block 350 cid engine.
It has every power option available in so far as seats windows trunk a/c and automatic tranny.
I believe a little over 3k of these convertibles were built in 69 w automatic and would differentiate it from a 442 because even though it has a four barrel and dual exhaust (it appears the car might have been a single exhaust at one time since something that looks like an exhaust tube on the right side below the manifold looking forward is welded off and duals installed) it is an automatic as well as the 442's weren't.
I guess what I have here is just a plain 350 cid Cutlass "S" with a 350 cid engine that looks great and goes like lightning but is far from rare.
Input of any variety from negative to positive is welcome.

If you like it and paid a fair price in your opinion then it was worth it whether it is special or not. Sorry to hear the car was represented as such, that happens sometimes and curse those people that do it for personal gain.
