Back on the street
This 69 was taken completely apart in 1989 by a friend of mine. I bought it in 2010 and started putting it back together. I drove it for the first time today and put 25 miles on it. Runs and drives great, just need to do some finishing touches (wiper door and a lot of clean up). All the info on this site helped a lot.

Thanks everyone. I'll post more pictures once I get them down loaded. I think I have taken 700 pictures of the restoration. It's nice taking pictures of a hole car. There's a couple on my profile.
