    me and my boys new mav

    we got our car home yesterday,and i started tearing it apart and learned some things about it,,,,1st its not a true grabber,but thats ok,i will take care of that,but 2nd of all,i bought it from the original owner,i have the original title and sales reciept,and the owners manual was still in it,it turns out my mav is a 69 and a half ,it was bought in august of 1969 the sticker in the door looks like it says 6 of 69 but the sticker is in bad shape and hard to read,so im going to research the vin numbers and see what i come up with,what month of 69 makes it a 69 and a half,can anyone tell me:cool:

    I have a 69.5, and the easiest way to tell is if the ignition switch is on the dash, not the steering column. There are other ways, but can't think of what they are.
