Sorry this is reply to all.

U-Pull-&-Pay in Aurora, and there might be a similar place in Colorado Springs, or LKQ Pick your Part (2 locations in the metro area) are the two places where I've spent time strip[ping Corvairs.  I've seen '65 & '66 cars, one time an early, but not later, and they rarely have any Corvairs.  There is a yard north of town, it might be Speedway Auto Parts that people have told me have Corvairs.  Duane Hays would be a good source but Duane spends the winter in NM.  There is a guy south of Albuquerque that is reported to have a lot of parts.  I don't recall his name but you can contact Chris Kimberly.  She would know.

As Steve observes, getting beyond driving distance will make shipping cost an issue.  California Corvairs might have something but they are in California...

Regards,

Mike

Hello again David: I realized that I replied too quickly.  I forgot to mention 'pick n pull' in Aurora and I believe there is another such place here in the area but I am not familiar with a name.  They get cars which are available for the public to remove parts before sending the remains to the crusher.

Depending upon your vision of the car 1968 and 69 is very similar and I am guessing you will need upholstry kits for anything you find and of course the color of your car.  All 69 Monza cpes have head rest bucket seats as well as late 68 Monza cpe.  Rear folding seats are same as far as bolt onto your floor.  I confess to not being sure about 67 sorry.

Again good luck with your search.

Steve
