Perry, I  am certainly not the knowledge base on the subject and their are o=
thers that have deeper knowledge.=20
In fact the earlier converted cars were actually in less numbers and served a=
s the basis for the production 100M. DMH saw an opportunity to market the pe=
rformance mods especially to the US market. Though the number of kits sold h=
as been debated, the number of 519 I believe has been shared over the years s=
tarting with Geoff Healey who quoted 1159 M were produced of which the 640 i=
s included, but no documentation exists to confirm.
If that is case, then there are less converted pre production M then factory=
 though the factory M were a result of the converted ones.
I have a Aug 54 100 that was converted in period.
Good discussion on the subject and I am open to more information on the subj=
ect from the list.
