B4C Bites the Dust - Real Source for Production numbers

It was a very very sad day on Aug 26th, 2003. One of the 589 B4C made in 1992 has been totalled. As this was a terrible thing, I will write a post later on the story after the dust has settled (no one was hurt, thank ***)

My request is, can someone send me a real, reliable source for the production numbers/rare-ity (sp?) that I can provide to my insurance agent before they asses the damages? Does the camaro white book have this? I would love someone to scan the pages and cover and copywrites and send them to me to fax to my insurance agent.

I would appreciate any help in the matter ASAP

Thank you all

There are no hard facts on the B4C's on whether how many 5 spds vs auto's. Me and another guy in Georgia are working together trying to find all 589 B4C vin numbers from 1992. I can tell you right now they made far more Auto cars than 5 spds. Biggest user of the 5spd B4C was Texas, Utah had 22, and Nebraska had approx. 14 of them. These are the only states that used the 5 spd to my knowledge. Texas had approx 60-100 of the cars in 1992 so in my opinion, 5spd B4C's totalled less than 200 for sure.

By the way where did yours come from??? I currently have one of each.

Hope this helps. By the way, let me have your vin number. We have collected approx. 300 vins so far.

Your welcome. I should talk to him on Sunday. Only thing I know about it is that its purple with black interior. Its an L98 with around 3000 miles or something like that. I've tried my best to get him to mod it but he never has.

Mine was from the El Paso Police department. VIN:1G1FP23F5NL154204

It was a 5 speed. It is now a piece of junk.

Sorry to hear about your car. My Utah car is a 5spd. I might be selling it later on as the resto gets further along on the CHP Car.

BTW, thanks for the vin.
