Of the one's I have information on there is honestly only a handful that I know for sure that aren't around any more. I'd put the number that are still around about the 225-235 range. I know for sure of 12 that have been scrapped/junked and no chance of being fixed as they went the way of the crusher. Although for 2 of those cars the tags are still out there floating around.

:drool5:  black push button on handle and a better picture of my missing part .  White bezel on the rear marker too . See danny i do listen some time ?  :smilielol: :smilielol:
After the long day i was not crawling back there to make wayne show me his tail lamp top !!!
Danny  wayne have been doing more work on his 500, he called me yesterday and it just has one "No" on the top of the left tail lamp ?  What does this mean again . ? So i can tell him ? 

   I know you said it had soming to do with the light group ?  Why did mine have "No" Twice ??


  Wayne just called again and he is having the same guy who did the restoration on my birdible put floor pans and quarters and repair his plug and paint his 500.  This guy is good and quick he should have it back by january !!!!  If i can get pictures of the project as it goes I will post them .

It is all an assumption on my part, but I believe the "NO" to mean that the car wasn't to get the trunk light relocated after the window plug was installed by creative. I am basing this solely on the fact that I have seen very few cars with the wording "YES" on them, and the only thing in the trunk that all of those cars have in common is the A01 trunk light package. And being that once the plug was installed by Creative, they had to cut then reweld the tab for the light on the new trunk lip.

Any idea's on the second  "NO"  in my car ?  Are there other cars with " NO " twice ?  Lots of cars with Yes and No ?

I think the count was something like 12 cars with "NO" and 4 cars with a "YES". Of the ones with "NO", I have seen them with as many as 3 "NO"s. One car I looked at had "NO" on top of two of the tail lights, as well as "NO" on the lip of the tail panel.

I believe that both Allen's 500 said "YES" and that Paul's 500 said "NO". Can't think of any one else's from the board that had writting on it. Oh, Jerry's HEMI 500 said "NO". Asked him about it at St. Louis this last year, and we checked and sure enough still said "NO" in yellow grease pencil. I might be wrong on Allen's car though, I know there was a picture somewhere in his thread on his car's restoration. Honestly I haven't taken the time to go through that thread and save all the pictures he posted yet. One of these days I need to get around to doing that.
