Close, it is a 68, notice the change in the door pleats on the 69 (subtle difference)

I do not remember where I found that photo, thought it was cool 8) .
I have an old original police light just like that, so some day I thought I would make my own 50's Lincoln police car (I do not think Jay Leno has one :D )

460 started in mid year 68; 462 (which is a bored out 430) ran from 66 -to mid 68.
