[Shotimes] opal frost

[Bruce Malachuk]

The numbers I used when I figured this out for myself was an average of all
ATX's sold vs all MTX's sold 93-95. To be overgenerous I called my car 1 of
241 Opal Frost MTX's :-) Now I know one was crushed at a local yard as a
friend remembers seeing it there for about 5 years, mangled, and looking
sliverish and being a 94.

Having a low miles Opal MTX, how many of the 1302 were MTX?  If I take an
average which for that year seemed to be 18% of sho's were MTX, would that
mean that my car is 1 of ~~~200?
