Here's the pertinent text from Frank G:

"The reason we have a complete, 100% breakdown for the 73 Formulas and not for the 74's is that, sometime in the mid 90's, an enthusiast had a strong interest in the 73 Formula's. Through hard work and dedication, he was able to obtain all 43 VIN's through communication with each state's DMV. He then ordered the PHS documents for all 43 cars. He allowed me to compile the data on those 43, which appeared in one of the SD Registries, back in the time when they were printed and mailed. I have to believe the opportunity to gather this type of information from the DMV is no longer permitted. PHS, by contract, is not allowed to mine the microfilm for statistics. They are only able to fill orders from customers who provide a VIN. So, we will never be able to obtain a 100%breakdown on the 74's like we have for the 73's."




So the above info prompts the theory that no exported cars would be on this list since they would not have been in the 50-state DMV databases if they were exported when new???
