Nice job on the upholstery job, Ben!!
I still don't know about the vent knob...it kinda looks like a door lock knob, don't it? I'll look at my '74 this evening and see what they look like. Of course, they prolly won't be the same as the '69 anyway, but now. I'm curious.

im going to try to get the other seat torn down and primed this evening. then one more day for painting and that should leave me recovering the drivers seat thursday night. I do need to order a few things... the pot metal chrome piece on the drivers door is junk. And I still dont know how to sew the headrest covers on so I may get those done at an uphosterly shop.

Ya...the pulls on my '74 are smooth as a baby's' bo-bo. Completely smooth, rounded edges, no circles on the end. They also appear to be a little longer than what a door lock knob would be. I didn't measure, but they looked to be about 2 1/2-3" long.
I can't believe no-one with a '69 has chimed in yet....
