I was about to challenge Kay on 1969 Volvo 164 windscreen rubbers, as both my '69 and '70 have rubber like yours, but he corrected himself. By looking at on-line lists Skandix are the best for body panels, and our Brookhouse also show that rubber part number as available.
In my opinion '69 is the best year to go for (rubbers and better-looking rear lights) but that must have been the change-over year for power-steering as one of mine has it, one doesn't. Try to avoid the 164E models as those many extra's the injection system comprises are now a pain to get hold of - I speak from experience as my '72 has had many components fail over the years!
If the rest of your proposed purchase is good, then go for it! You haven't said if stick-shift auto or not: make sure the stick pivot area is OK and not breaking up as these are rare (over here).
