Can you post a picture of your dash? That might be easier. I don't have the '69 any longer to take a picture of the dash.

River,

I did the smart thing and poked this site. Found a dash picture for a "66 it would appear that I have an extra toggle on my dash for a back up (reverse) light.
I am happy to have found out the motor runs quite well. Soon I will have a solid day to get it running on it's own fuel tank at which time I'll check function of all other components.

I had 2 hours today to tinker. I found that the old fuel pump was full of solids and the new one is so pretty. So dirty came off pretty went on 45 seconds of cranking and there's a sweet sounding motor. Quite happy thus far.
