Hi Terry,
You could call this Registry an obsession. I started out to try and find
out where the 1975 Palm Beach I had bought new, had gone. One thing led
to another and we are at 3,425 GMCs already.
It is like an antique or classic car Registry. Find out how many are
still alive and well and where, in the world, are they. We have a hundred
or so in Europe, Australia, etc.
I don't publish any data in raw form. The data you have given me (plus
the additional you said you will send later) remains confidential and is
not loaned, sold, rented, bartered, etc., etc. I have published certain
demographic info in GMC MH MP Magazine and on the Internet. Every once in
a while I will pull together some numbers that show where the coaches are
by state or country and how many there are in each place. That sort of
stuff.
Btw, do you have any info on the Avion coaches, like how many did they
make, any literature, etc? I am also planning an article about the
various companies who finished GMC Transmodes but I need to do a lot of
research first.
Your data will remain confidential and, No, sorry to say there is no
contest, so no prize. I do need to seek treatment as this has grown to
where it is no longer a hobby!
