According to the roadster registry at http://311s.org/ they list 5
1969 cars in the range SRL-13000 thru SRL-13985, which are probably
1970 cars but I have no idea why the owners thought they were 1969
cars. The listing for 1970 shows at least 5 cars less than SRL-13000,
which were probably 1969 cars sold and tagged as 1970 cars. The
nearest number to yours on the 1969 list is SRL-12932. Maybe yours is
the last one around as a 1969 model. (Keep in mind the listing entries
are contributed by roadster owners, there probably are other cars out
there that are not listed.)
