'69 was the first year for the rear window defogger, at least in the US.

I was young and poor. It allowed me to get extra lifetime out of batteries that
were only half dead.

We used your '69 to test A & B brains. We tested for the 2 clicks, and then
we used them to start and run the engine. We did not try to drive the car with
each brain.
You may also have helped me test E brains using my '73 as a test "mule."
I had to test C & D brains another time when my '71 was out.
