99 Z28 Vibrating & Rumbling noise coming from under the center console.

I just picked up a 1999 Camaro Z28 and it makes a loud rumbling and vibrating sound ALMOST like the sound that you hear when your tires go over rumble strips on the shoulder of the road but without the vibration and the pitch of the sound is much lower.

This occurs under hard acceleration OR at speeds above 55 MPH. The car has 177k miles so I'm not surprised but what is happening and is it unsafe to drive? What needs to be replaced? Tranny Mount? Drive Shaft? U-Joints??? How can I tell which one is causing it? The sound is much

Trans mount is easy to check. Put a floor jack under the trans and see if you can lift it off the cross-member.
