Remember you want the one without the drain and there are two different types/styles - the regular one and the one for cars sent to Calif

I've been dealing with all classic the last few years and J.D. is very helpful.

Wow, I've preferred 70's for alot of years now due to the myriad of little improvements over 69's, but doing away with the drain plug was a just a poor decision.
It's a bonus for rarely driven cars that end up with stale gas if you're remiss with stabilizer.
