I'm having my 69 454 BB converted to Holley Sniper EFI and adding Classic Auto A/C.
There were only about 2,000 miles on the restoration.

Some parts coming home will include:
Fuel tank, BB serpentine system, Holley 4 barrel carb, upper radiato hose

I'm the farthest thing from a mechanic but I hired a damn good one so if you have questions I'll get answers.

Anyone interested? Here's what we started with:

Jim , Happy to read that you are getting close to having your latest upgrades done to your 69 that you have recently purchased . Like others here in Region 6 , Fl. , we were looking forward to seeing this nice ride at this weekend`s NMCA but with the threat of rain , we will see it at our upcoming Gainesville Get Togethher And 1/4 Mile Run April 1 .

I have only owned this vehicle 2 months and it was restored I think back in 2018. It came to me with only 1500 miles on the restoration which I believe included a new fuel tank. My mechanic says it's like new.

Jim , Like you , I am awaiting the addition of a Holley Sniper throttle body injection set up on my 59 . I have been told by others that once it is set up and running , it may be two or three days of it " learning " , so a few small hiccups may be expected .

Great looking engine compartment.

Where are you located? I just inherited a 69 that has not been started in 20+ years. I know it needs a fuel tank. I'm in NW Florida

If he doesn't have one
You could come to the Gainesville get-together April 1st & can stop at NPD national parts depot in ocala & get a brand new tank

Follow up: I spoke to my mechanic yesterday specifically about the gas tank they took out and they showed me the tank complete with sending unit and described it as "practically brand new".
