if i jump the gun or not i bought a 1969 Grande coupe 351w 2-bbl, 9-inch rear end, w/ ac, power steering and brakes, vinyl top and a few more goodies. It's got rust in all the wrong places; front floor pans, the passenger side is non-existent, bean sized holes rusted through along the top of the windshield, rusted through where the rear quarter panel meets the rear pillar both sides, the parts they don't make replacements for, after removing the front left fender my assumption that the car had been in an accident was confirmed, and rust in several other places. engine wise the left hand head gasket gushes oil about where the #7 cylinder is, and it need a vacuum advance.

it parted with it's previous owner $1800, been scouring the classfieds and the net high, and when this one popped, local too. i just had to have it.

That sounds pretty rough. Better see if you can attatch some pictures. There are a few '69-'70 guys here that can help you out, or check out www.69stang.com.
