Ah, there's the rub. We have no way of knowing whether all 640 went to 
Warwick, because apparently DHMCo didn't keep careful records of how many cars 
from the factory they converted. All we know is what we glean from the 
factory production build cards, and all they indicate is that the car was 
received 
at Longbridge from Jensen's with a louvred hood.
