Pretty damned close .... The Ford F series is the current best selling model at the moment but not one of the all time best selling. The other four are on the list but not in the right order. ------------- PM |

Just the F series has sold over 30 million so far.Only 15 million Model T's were sold so I'm wondering where your info has come from?
Glad to see I'm close with the other 4 though

I thought that due to mexican/brazilian plants staying open longer the beetle numbers topped out at over 25 million?? ------------- The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think. |

As faras I'm aware yes they were original spec..... did you know that in the original beetle run (not brazil/mexico) of the 5115 parts the only one that didn't change/evolve was the bonnet seal???? ------------- The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think. |

Decklid from memory.... when I had one I devoured every bit of trivia I could get my mits on, now it's all slowly being replaced by information on tax loopholes and other such important things! ------------- The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think. |
