Hey Fud, its a 69 LC, A quick way to tell from that view is the front of the guards, it has a pressed out rectangle shape for the LC light surrounds so they rap around, Cheers Dan

Looks like a ripper to start with! Nice :)
Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer
