Hi. I have heard that the 69.5 is rare , but that was after I bought mine (built July 3 1969) and I was pretty happy that I own one and I wasn't really looking for one.All I wanted originally was a pre-73 Maverick to play around with.But then I started having trouble with mine about a year and half ago and wanted to get rid of it fast (I ended up keeping it)but at that time I saw a 74 Grabber and it was trashed but it did had everything I wanted(302,A/C, P/S and a few other things)and I offered to trade mine for that one but the old lady refused and said here car was worth $5,000 , I was laughing inside because this thing was so beat up.Anyhow , who besides a few people here know that a 69.5 is actually worth something?And if it were fully restored , is it worth the same kind of money as a mid 70's Grabber , also fully restored?Or worth more?BTW , my car came with a 200 I-6, Automatic trans., A/C , and tinted windows with 14 inch wheels, if that will help ya on the price.Sorry I keep going on but , the reason I showed it having 14 inch wheels is because I though that they were an option, is that true?
