One more recent H/O enthusiast here. Terry from upstate NY.

'69 H/O #229

Opts:

Tint
Tilt (added)
Sport Wheel
AM-FM (added)
anti-spin
3.91 axle
Rear air shocks (orig fac. opt. and no I don't drive around jacked up)

For any one interested in '69's here's a near perfectly restored engine bay (not mine) of a non-AC car I looked at in SC last year. It is H/O #881 and the superduper engine compartment detailing and restoration was done by Ken Millington of CA. This low res pic (had to shrink from 2 meg to upload) doesn't do it justice. Wish you could see detailed things better like fire wall stamps,brake line tags, paper "SK" tag on brake booster, and printing on brake vacuum hose, etc. Nice job! This was one of the '69's where the factory ran the red battery cable in the alternate location along the left valve cover in lieu of the left wheel house where is also commonly seen.

I've never seen a 69 h/o without the "fome" Didn't know what the 1st version of the flapper door looked like. Thanks for the pic.
