I spent the last 3 days ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) ) adding new VIN numbers to our database that i collected from all over the internet and out of various print publications ...
i added over 300 new VINs! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif)

i also cleaned up the database and made some changes to the interface.
most notably, you can now list all '74 Limited Edition Cars separately and the display for them is now color coded. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)


here is a breakdown of the current database content:

- Total of "unique" VIN Numbers in the Database: 4255

- Total '69 VINs = 4
- Total '70 VINs = 634
- Total '71 VINs = 311
- Total '72 VINs = 545
- Total '73 VINs = 1028
- Total '74 VINs = 1248
- Total '75 VINs = 579
- Total '76 VINs = 290

- Total of prototype Cars = 4
- Total of 914/4 Cars = 4183
- Total of 914/6 Cars = 441
- Total of 916 Cars = 11
- Total of GTs - Factory/Dealer/m471 Cars = 57
- Total of Limited Edition Cars = 202
- Total of crushed/dead/destroyed Cars = 158
- Total of Cars with a Picture attached = 271


- Prototype Cars:
'69 = 4

- 914/4:
'70 = 253
'71 = 258
'72 = 528
'73 = 1028
'74 = 1248
'75 = 579
'76 = 290

- 914/6:
'70 = 381
'71 = 52
'72 = 8

- 916:
'71 = 1
'72 = 10


if you haven't updated your VIN info yet, please click the link below to do so:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act=membervins

you can add as many VIN numbers as you like. we'd like to hear about all your cars, past and present. even the ones you cut up.
and if you came across a car in a junkyard or a field and you got the VIN number off of it, please PM one of the VIN admins so we can add those to the database as well.


special thanks goes to Rob Watson for sending me a comprehensive list of '74 cars! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)


if you have any questions please contact me.
