Larry,
As keeper of the Bricklin Registry, I have 2053 records in the database.
This includes numerious duplicates as I track car history. So if I know a
car has had 3 owners, the car is in the database 3 times.
I have about 1780 cars that we know of.
>How many are reported lost forever?
Of these only 1 or 2 are marked as totaled, I think. I know of about 3 other
cars (no VINS) that are parts cars or were totaled. Cars keep slowly comming
out of the wood work. Maybe 1 a month.

That I have NO idea of. We don't ask that question - probably should.
However, that becomes very subjective. Many, especially the ones up North
aren't driven in the winter. But may be driven almost daily during the
Spring, Summer, and Fall.

I understand that. The only protection there is a good insurance policy.

There are quite a few - on the road as weekenders and fair weather cars, but
I don't know how many.
Also of the 1780ish cars, only about 380 people and about 453 cars are
in BI. Have you missed your Brickline?
