Here's a interesting 69 for sale on E-Bay. Check the engine pad stamping. You don't see that date every day. Might be a nice car for the right person.

Wouldn't that be an LM1 car with the 350 and q-jet?

Looks like what I would refer to as an Armistice Day motor.
Similar to how I refer to my block as the Valentines Day motor (T0214)

Not an orig burnished brown car. First time I have ever seen somebody paint their car that color if not orig!! Olympic gold is a cool color.

It's a LM-1 engine but it's supposed to be a Power glide and he says it's a Turbo 350 so either he don't know or somebody changed the transmission out.

Yeah most LM! Ive seen with the Turbo 350 have a 12 bolt also.
That is odd about the color. That's no where near Burnished Brown. I painted my car that because it was the factory color. From Gold to brown is Odd.

Im pretty sure that the LM1's could have PG or Th350 and could have 10 bolt or 12 bolt... several of these combos have been seen over the years. Depends on what you 'ordered' . Mine was LM1 with Th350 and 12 bolt 308...

I have a TH400 Auto trans with a 316 Julian Date on the yellow tag corresponding to Nov. 11 1968.

Interesting that it's a 10-bolt. I've seen other LM1/M35 cars that have had 12-bolts.
-
The LM1 was dropped sometime around the calender year 1969 and replaced by the L69 (I think that's the code) It was a 350 2bbl mated with the new TH350. Being the horsepower had dropped, the 12 bolt rear was no longer required
-
It was the L65. HP dropped only by 5hp.

L-65 was the new engine not L-69
