700 bucks for a 69 grande qith a good body that runs is darn near phenomenal. the interior can be replaced but it will actually cost more than the car did. the grandes also have a non-existant cloth material called "hopsack cloth" which nobody reproduces as of yet, you can use the regular deluxe comfortweave upholstery in it's place or even have a local trim shop replace the comfort weave from the new covers with some kind of cloth. sounds like you have a prettty nice project there, be sure to post pics when you can. good luck and welcome
