1969 Daytona 440 4 speed .

Yes pretty sure you are correct.

I have seen date codes stamped in K frames but not part numbers. Sway bar setup is the same as regular 69 Charger I believe.

paging hemigeno...

He has pics in his monster thread if you feel like going through it.


Isn't the part number on the "coin" that was welded to the front?  Not all have that.  Gene's pictures show a date stamp on the top side.

I'm feeling lazy today... Here's a photo stolen from the old Moparts A12 forum that spells out all the details of a late '69 model K-frame:
