69 Chevelle gas tank

Anyone have a source for a 69’ Chevelle gas tank? The ones I’ve found have the vent on the passenger side like a GTO and not on the driver’s side. Thanks

Dave Nunes 70 Chevelle

Does anyone remember Dave Nunes' 70 Chevelle? It was in the September 1986 issue of Hot Rod Magazine and wondering if it still has the street machine look or restored back to stock.
