The Stazak list only shows 51 serial numbers. There were 400 dealer kits available so there should be another 349 GT cars out there (if all the kits were put on cars). And the list shows 15 of the 50 factory cars built. So in total there should be 384 GT cars unaccounted for.

We dont actually look at it that way. Basically the original 51 2 or 3 are true GT cars. Some of those 400 parts sold where spares for most of the race teams. The factory pulled 6 chassis' from the production line and designated them "GT" or M471.

So the dealer built cars aren't considered GT cars? Is it only the factory ones that are?

In the eyes of a collector or person who does restorations.... the factory built cars are the ones to have. Its not that the others are not considered GT's (several where built by Art Bunker out of Kansas) but these are documented with Porsche.
