Hard to verify the fastest stock car in 1969 or any other time for that matter. I look at trap speed as an indication of power to weight and is somewhat independent of starting line traction. Most small block cars of the muscle car era would not break 100 mph and even some big block cars could not do it. LS6 and Hemi cars were in the range of 103 to 105 mph and you heard of several that were close to 110 mph. These would be the fastest in my opinion. COPO Camaro's, L88 Corvettes, and other low production supercars would be in this range. Very few could exceed 110 mph without tuning or bolt on parts.
