    Was wondering if their just a figment of imagination or if the Original 1969 Maverick ( the one with the key cylinder on the dash) really exists... Anybody have pics or stories?

    They are titled as a 1970 though. There are plenty on here. I for one have one of them.

    I've had a few
    I have one, drove it for a couple of months a few years ago. Solid car, but it's been hit in the back pretty hard and not repaired properly, so I'm using it for parts. Have the opportunity to buy another one right now that's real straight and rust free.. may go look at it this weekend.

    There are also some Canadians that have scored a 69.5 from Washington state as-well.

    No, there were only 2 doors in 69.5 and 70. Also they were only offered with a I6, no V8s. I hunted for mine for a long long time. It is my daily driver.
