Will the hood off of a 69 coupe fit a 69 Mach1 ?

Also what other parts off of a coupe will fit a Mach1 ?

What size rear end and what possible gear ratio would be in a 69 coupe 6 cyl ?

The entire front clip of a '69 Coupe will fit a '69 Fastback. You will have to drill holes and cutout holes for the hood scoop and turn signals.

As mentioned, the front sheel metal will bolt on. As for the rearend, if it is a 200 6 cyl, it will have a 6 3/4" integral rearend with 4 lug axles, if it is a 250 cube 6, it will have a 8" with 5 lug axles. The gear ratios would likely be in the 2.79/2.80, 3.00 range, with 3.20`s possible, but unlikely.

Hey Rory? Did '69's come with 200's? I thought 200's were matched with a 7 1/2.

They used both the L code 250 and the T code 200 until 1970. '71 was the year that started having only the 250 available.
