i can attest to the fact that those numbers are inaccurate (i own a few that aren't registered...)

well I do too, but it was still cool to see some numbers.

How about VW Microbusses (aka "Type II" aka "Kombi"), through 1967 (1968 added lots of weight, got rid of the nifty split windshield and sliding front L&R side windows, and added the ghastly sliding door in back).

They came in endless varieties from plain "busses" with up to something like 27 windows, to campers with huge pop-tops, to single- and double-cab pickups with fold-down sides in back. I used to have a restored red '61 double-cab with souped-up engine that would cruise comfortably at 80mph unless there were crosswinds.

CV joints hadn't yet been invented, so they had non-constant-velocity joints in the backwards-spinning driveshafts, and 1:1.25 "reduction gears" at each rear wheel, i.e. 3 gearboxes.

I'd like to get a nice rust-free RHD camper model to use Down Under before they're all gone.

1983 Corvette?

Pretty sure he said PM him lmao

[Rocketman]

I responded to the PMs i did get

Damn. You guys got over 50k still running around... My beloved Capri are only around 22k.

If I have some time, I'll grab the 2009 numbers I have & post them, for comparison. We went from close to 26k down to just above 22k.

[M3NTAL]

Hey rocket I just junked my Capri

It'll be ok bud... Hehe

60k survivors out of 350k sold is really impressive, especially for a cheap economy car - usually prime targets for neglect and abuse. Those numbers don't even take into account unregistered Festivas - factor those in, and there may be upwards of 100k still out there....:fucyc:

Just think, 20 years from now, our beloved Festivas might be the next '57 Chevy!

Here's a great example of what I'd like to help this community become in the future. If I ever make it in the business world, rest assured I'll be opening one of these businesses somewhere in North America. Imagine that...

"We maintain a complete inventory of all 14,726 parts that Nash, Hudson and AMC Metropolitans are made of and ship parts out every day to places all over the world. Everything is in stock at all times so you never have to wait for back-ordered items. Be confident our parts put inside / outside / underneath a Met will fit + look + work right and are safe and reliable.'"

You might be able to make a tidy profit stocking parts for our cars, considering they aren't likely to disappear anytime soon. Add some performance and overseas-only parts to the mix and you'd be set. :thumbup:

Those Metropolitans are pretty cool cars. I've seen at least three in my area recently. My understanding is they have a pretty big following.
