Production #'s and VIN questions?
Production #'s and VIN questions?
Anybody know the total number of Stage 1's that were produced? Throughout the different years? Eg. 1984?
I have read that there were 29 88" V8's built. How about 109's?
Are County Stage 1's rare?
My serial # is 177708. Anybody have a later one?

I don't have production numbers though - think I will find out from Gaydon.
County is nice the spec is better

but also you can see more from the spares lists
What's more desirable in terms of options - that's personal choice but Overdrive his high on my list!

Hi
As far i i could find out when i owned a Stage 1 is
29 88" Stage 1s were produced with 27 going to the Trinidad & Tobago Police force. 2 that i know of are still on the island, one i tracked down in South America and 1 in Germany. The german one is on utbube video. The other 2 were factory registered. Dont know anything about them. Long gone i expect.
27 Stage 1 Hi Caps. One i have just sold to an enthusiast in Holland. There is another here in Cornwall somewhere and a couple scattered in this country.
The Stations were relatively common in Stage 1 terms, although still rare.
Quite a few pick ups and hard tops made.
Dont know about total mumbers. I have seen a 1976 prototype Stage 1 at Gadon heritage center.

Parts catalogue quotes a modification to the 1/2 gearbox selector fork at gearbox number 88108316.
Assuming 5% of gearboxes were supplied as spares in CKD kits or were warranty units in the first years of production, that would indicate a field population of about 7900 vehicles.
Could be completely wrong of course....

No County's sold in Australia.
Virtually all the original accessories are considered rare or desirable as very few were fitted to the vehicles when new, primarily due to cost. This does vary slightly depending on precisely what model you have.
