I believe on the '69 (non El Camino) cars that there is a fuel vent surge on top of the tank and you are supposed to use a non vented cap. Am I correct?

Summer Nationals issue of Car Craft is out.
(Preview)
Not much for photos of members cars. But the lead photo does appear to be Rick and his 64 vert with the Car Craft hottie riding in the back. One photo also has the cream colored 66 with the modified 6 liter in it that both Bryan and Chris know in what looks like the RSE braking test.
