    "The Cars" link on the right side of that page will take you to the ones that have been found.

    Is there anywhere to find the digits for the cars that haven't been found?

    Looks like 21 have been found so far? Do we know the VINs of the other nine? If not I might be able to help with that.

    I like the update to the Registry site.

    AND I CAN HELP BY BUYING ONE OF THESE FROM SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT WANT THE ONE THEY HAVE AS LONG AS IT IS A DECENT CAR AND COMPLETE MOSTLY. AND ABOVE ALL PRICED FAIRLY. ANYONE KNOW WHERE THERE IS ONE FOR PURCHASE ? I WOULD LOVE TO EYEBALL ONE. I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO MAKE A REPLICA CAR AS THAT IS NOT MY BAG BABY. I JUST PREFER THE COLOR PATTERN OVER THE BLUE 85 CARS. I COULD SETTLE FOR A RED 86 MCLAREN AS WELL. THANKS

    Unless you buy a 'vert, your only option to have a red one is to make it yourself.

    Pretty sure he sold. And came alittle closer.

    So you bought your GP from Chris? I wish I could have seen it alittle longer before it left MI. And got some pictures with the two side by side. Maybe someday.

    It's still far from road ready, however, it is further along than the last thread updates showed - the passenger rear quarter is fixed and the floors have been replaced, along with some other minor rust repairs. Bad news is that the engine is froze. I am looking forward to getting it together with other GPIV's!

    Thanks; I hope so. I seem to have a knack for finding (stumbling across by chance) some of the unique ones. Problem is, they are all significant projects and none of them run. Maybe I should open a museum to help fund the restorations! :-)
