Find me state by state data on square mileage of land and census data of people and I'll add that in, that's simple.

Folks, 10,000 cars is a long long way from rare. If nothing else, this survey has shown that there are lots of these cars on the road and any talk about collector status is very premature.

No sensible person should mention the word collectible in reference to these cars for at least another 10-15 years IMHO.

Collector car insurance is currently available for FDs through Great American Classic Auto Insurance. The only stipulations are that the car can NOT be your primary driver, and policies are priced based on a yearly mileage limitations, i.e., 3,000 and 5,000 mile policies.

My exact thoughts!
Either a very good independent rotary mechanic, or just some kid that has it up on blocks but still pays for license and registration

Or maybe a very fortunate unmodified owner that drives very rarely and keeps a good eye on things.


Still with that kind of locality, finding a competent mechanic if you need one must be a bit of a challenge!

I feel blest I have the level of support (competency) I do in my area, and cant say thanks enough to the local rotary businesses around that have helped.

The data is on the fd3s.cc registry site now and all sortable by whatever you want. I'll deal with adding in new features later. For now just login and click on the registry section link and then you'll see it.

Actually I disagree. Out of the 100 million cars that are registered in the U.S. (rough guess ) less than 10k are FD's. That's pretty rare.

I've stickied the results thread. Is there a reason to keep this thread open? Otherwise I will close it.
