Default possible '69 purchase!

I'm off to look at a '69 on Monday. From what I'm told, the body has a few cracks, the interior is rough, needs brakes, pressure plate and throw-out bearing. This chap is the third owner and has had the car 20 years. I'm very excited about this prospect. Any thing particular to this year that I need to be aware of? Thanks n advance! :cheers:
