If we examine the table that I published 5/20/97 which was taken from
Chris Bullock's TR6 database and update it with your information, we see:
1974 Comm # Year Owner
-----------------------------
CF25186UO 1974 ingate@shiseis.com (Shane Ingate)
CF25689U 1974 becky_sforza@nmh.northfield.ma.us (Becky Sforza)
CF25718UO 1974 Scott.Mackay@SEMATECH.Org (Scott Mackay)
CF27463U 1974 1/2 Carelallen@aol.com (Carel Allen)
CF27518U 1974 1/2 flarsen@earthlink.net (Flemming Larsen)
CF27535U 1974 1/2 streeter@sanders.com (Ken Streeter)
I have associated Allen's, Larsen's and Streeter's cars as 1974 1/2
based on information (body and ornament styles) supplied by them, and
the generalization that "1974 1/2 started with CF27xxx".
It appears that Scott has the "last of the 74s" on this list...
My question is, what happened to CF26xxx cars? Are there any, or is
this a big gap in the BL numbering scheme that was deliberately
introduced to demarcate the 1974 and 1974 1/2 cars? In counting
the total number of TR6s sold, are CF26xxx included? (if so, and no
CF26xxx cars were produced, then this would artifically inflate the
number of TR6s sold).
