I know for a fact that a 72 cruise will fit a 70, so I would expect a 72 to also fit a 69. Therefore, I would expect the 69 to fit. Basically, in that regard, everything is the same as far as bolting on the components. So I do not see why a 69 wouldn't work. If it works, all the pieces are there and the price is right, I'd buy it.
