I recently found my 8 door 1969 Window shorty just 4 hours north! Then, as luck would have it, I picked up a 1969 A108 just yesterday for $500! My 8 door has some rust damage that I need repaired, and this 108 has all kinds of straps, dials, and hardware that I need alone! The "rust" in the photo is actually lichen growing...this thing is pretty straight!

UPDATE
Hey everyone.
Just wanted to post a few pictures...I pulled the back seats, the plywood on the floor, surprisingly little rust! Now I have to re-wire the dash, as some red-wire fried. None of the gauges worked, so it was supposed to happen.
Recommendations on new gauges? Where to get em? What to get? I appreciate any info!
