Is it worth it?

It depends.....If you want just a nice daily driver and it would only cost a couple grand to paint her up then you'd have like $6 k into it. The cost to get it painted is the big factor here. I'll probably end up with $ 7500 into my 74 when I'm done which seems high but I'll know what I have will be a good solid driver that looks great IMO of course. Again the condition of the body is the big determining factor with this question. Try to write down all the things you will need to do and make a budget for the project. The 69 has to be worth like $10K running and with a decent paint job.
