Do we need a MM Registry? I might volunteer to do that. I am retiring in a couple of years and I am looking for something to keep me busy. However, I have no clue on what you have to do to setup a registry. Any ideas or contacts?

Ummm...I'm not getting this? What are we looking for?

[Petrograde]

rescently,.. it seems like alot of people want to know if their car is X out of 11,048 cars made.

I doubt we can pin it down to exact numbers, but if enough members post,... we can pin it down.

Maybe "in service" date, too, which is in Ford service records. I bought mine used.
