Does the car have standard (plastic buckle) seatbelts?
If so, does the passenger side front seat belt have a retractor, or is the outer most male seat belt just a loose male belt?

If deletion of the passenger side seatbelt retractor was part of the content revision for the late 70 season T-37's (like it was for '71's) then your car's build being mid March '70, would point to it being a Tempest, not a T-37.
FWIW. After doing a little digging I noticed that Goatless' 70 T-37 has a passenger side retracting seatbelt, so it's possible that that didn't change for '70.5. Which makes me wonder if anything is different between a '70 Tempest vs a '70.5 Tempest T-37 other than the decal on the front fender.
