Did any 1969s use the C8 fuel tank sender?

I know I have found some on 69 cars before over the years but in retrospect I couldn't say for sure that they hadn't been replaced. for some reason. I wouldn't want to bet my life on it one way or the other.

It would not read correctly if they used a '68 sender on a '69 (also 1970 Shelby) gas tank so I doubt it ever happened.

No don't believe so. Possibly some shade tree attempt

Jeff,
Who rebuilds those senders. My 1969 tank sender is in nice shape but not functional.
