I've thought about how it would be nice if the information was computerized like a Marti report to provide more statistical information (how many cars came with a specific engine or color, etc.) but it would be a huge job to do so. I suppose each fiche could be scanned using optical character recognition software, but there are millions of them and each one would have to be checked for accuracy. Plus, many have hand written notes and special instructions that would have to manually entered. It would take forever and who knows how much it would cost.
