I agree with Owen about the difficulties of looking at club rosters and IF the member lists their cars etc. Each roster that someone or club has is dependant on someones offer to give out information. They may be members one year and not the next. Have the car and sell it.

I am not familiar with any PI roster keepers, but PAC does have roster keepers for different years and models. The 55-56 roster keeper, the last one I saw had about 162 of the 56 Caribbeans convertibles found. NOT ALL are complete cars, but they were identified.

You can contact the PAC roster keepers at www.packardclub.org

Even Packard made estimates on how many cars were still on the road look at Packard Service Letter Vol 16 NO 10 May 15 1942. "How many cars have tires?
