John,

A 69 Chevelle 2 door post sedan can ONLY be a 300 Deluxe model; no 69 Malibus came with a post. If it's a post sedan and has dash vents (Astro Ventilation), then someone swapped in a Malibu dashboard some time over the years. The 2 door post sedan cars only came with the kick panel vents and the vent windows in the doors. And yes, the Malibu came standard with the hidden wipers, but they were optional at extra cost on the 300 Deluxe.

Thanks for the info Bill. So ANY 1969 Chevelle 2 door post is a 300 D?

Got it.

Correct, but you must also not forget that the 300 Deluxe was also in a 4 door sedan version and a 2 door sports coupe in 1969 (not a Post Sedan). 13337 and 13437
