agreed. try to stay on topic. I was looking for visual clues on suspension differences on ANY year Corvair, just so happen to own a 69.
I found a white sticker last night while working on the brakes, it was pretty brittle and just barely legible. If I were to follow Kent Sullivan's web page info on suspension tag ID's HL=heavy duty springs/shocks on the rear. So for now, I have answered my question, I guess, and will just pat myself on the back and convince myself I have three desirable options on my green on green 69 monza. Now I'm feeling a little better about this recent purchase I have made, for awhile I thought I might have been ripped off by the "quality" of the guy that sold it to me.

There are three '69s in the fleet here. A 4th belongs to someone
else and is stored here.
None of these '69 Corvairs exhibit any build quality issues that
could be regarded as "way down". Not trying to spark a debate. I'm
just sayin'...
