I purchased my car from a dealer in indiana and Im in Ny I have about 5 years of paperwork. What would I look for or who could I contact to document this car. I don't know if tank-sticker is in place. It is a 1969 tri-power L-68 Everything with the dates on this car look right.

1. Did you get any documentation from the dealer you bought from, like POP or previous owner(s)?
2. Can you determine what state the vehicle was most recently registered in?
3. Take a flashlight and bend the rubber boot to the side so you look at the driver's side top of the fuel tank, hope you find a tank sticker.
4. Emissions/tune up label on firewall near brake master cylinder can be an excellent clue (two-digit code indicates engine).
5. Can you post a picture of your pad stamp?
There is no single source to do this work for you, it is time-consuming and often frustrating.

I believe the code should be CJ for early 69 and CK for 69s built after MAY.

Only thing you can do is call the owner the dealer bought it from, and work backwards. I only made it to the previous 5 owners, which I was only able to speak to 4. Haven't been able to reach the 5th one yet.
Good luck.
Good luck.

My 69 L68 4 speed has an LQ code and I think the autos are LN. I don't remember any engine that had a C code in 69. I have some vague recollection of C codes starting in 70 but the numbers people should know better.
