I have 2 '69 MkIIIs. Pictures are on my www.freebacon.net website. Yours
looks a lot like the one that my son is rebuilding. We have welded on
replacement panels, not too big of a deal (I know someone who is a good
welder, that helps a bunch). Floor panels were mostly intact, we welded
reinforcement pieces in there.
Big difference with the MkI and MkII are the bumpers are lower (more of an
open-mouth look), 1147cc engine instead of the 1300, and the gauges are in
the center panel. Engines and transmissions are interchangeable between all
years (I've put an 1147 into a '79, and a 1500 into a '69 with very little
trouble)
