Pardon my ignorance Mark, but I don't know. I'll take a pic of the engine bay, if it will help to determine.

For ‘69, you should have a vin tag with a date. Jan-February:1bbl. March-September: two-piece 2bbl (no separate throttle body, vacuum secondary. Oct on: 3 piece carb with cast iron throttle body, mechanical secondary.

If you’re not doing a resto, the 3rd iteration is the preferred option.

You are a wealth of info Mark, I'll look when able.

Unless you are doing a correct restoration, I would take Marks advice on his carb recommendation.

If he has one that he has rebuilt I would highly recommend buying it. A serviced and properly set up carb will most certainly save you a lot of grief, time and $$$.
