Don't know if that remained true in 69.

If you can find a 1969 dealer ordering instructions book it would have that code in it. I have those books for 64-67 but I don't think I have a 69. I will double check this weekend though.
Great information Jeff and that alone may put some of this to rest. I do not have the 69 books so if anyone does I would greatly appreciate any help in that matter.
