(My dad owned one - bought from original owner/neighbor in 78, sold in 84, scrapped in 85.) The 22 M-21 close ratio 4spd (special order) cars - there are about 3 known and all were Model Js. Among the 94 M-20 wide ratio 4spd cars, perhaps more than 50% are Model SJ, but I've seen quite a few Model Js - and I own one as well.
Sorry - I guess this turned into a big digression. I've learned to never say never, but generally, an SJ for 1969 should have the non-HO 428 as the standard engine.
