just curious
1. - has anyone counted the number of "real sixes" that are roadworthy, or in true-back-to-stock-resto process, that are essentially "as delivered" bone stock & never "improved" with newer or later engines, transaxles, body & suspension mods, etc? 2. - how many real sixes '70-72 in any form are there that are road worthy or track-ready right now? 3. - how many real sixes upgraded to some form of "471" or GT-like prep, with flares, etc, that are currently road worthy or track-ready? is there a short list of VINs & owners for either category of these real sixes? . |

Yea, If you give some credence to the 220 number, then having 20 cars or so going across the pond is significant. That would be a reasonable guess I think - 10 to 20.
Looking back, I count 12 cars out of my sample that are ROW (all Euro but 1 Nippon). Not sure exactly how that effects the numbers really. In addition, some significant percentage of cars registered were last heard from in the 70's. Certainly some of those are gone. In general, that drops the US number down some, probably right in the 200 range. Not officially authoritative, but a decent SWAG in the absence of real numbers. |
