best guess on how many 914's are still on the road, Doing an alblum of the rebuild Options

Ok I'm doing an album on my 1972 project, a before during and after. I'm working on getting a reproduction window sticker, have scores of pictures and would like to add some history. I have numbers of 914 produced by years and was wondering if anyone had any idea on how many are still on the road? No right or wrong answer here, I did find a thread from 2008 and the range was from 2400-12,000.. I think this would be interesting reading at local car shows and the like. THANKS and enjoy!

This subject has been revisited many times here, search the archives. 2 important data points:

Only ~83K 914/4 came to the USA as indicated by recall HO (dated 1977 after the last 914 was made). The remaining ~30K 914/4s must have gone to ROW markets.

The 914LE Registry I maintain records about 30 years of data (thanks Dave Pateman!). Of the approximately 1000 914LEs that were allegedly made, only about 250 still remain, and many of those are frankly in marginal condition. Nonetheless, thats a 25% survival rate of some of the last 914/4s made. 25% of 83K is about ~20K 914/4s that may have survived, and many of which are also marginal condition.

We'll never know the exact number.
