Chevy Rear?

To our resident rear end experts: Is this an Olds with a Chevy cover? Or a Chevy rear?

Original

That is what thaey say it is
original 1973 1976 Olds Cutlass 3.23 10 bolt 8.5 rear. Will fit 1977 also... Pretty sure 75 76 they ended the bolt in axles in all GM 2nd gen 10 bolt 8.5 rears. 1977 they were all c-clip...
Posi bolt in axle rear correct cover and all. Jim

Price

Price is a bit insane as that housing is still VERY common and easy to find compared to the 1971 1972 era 10 bolt 8.5.
1973-1977 ALL gm A body cars came with that rear Not just the Buick and Olds.

Wow, with that price for the more common rear I should start thinking about selling some of the "less common" rears I have in storage.
